Ingredients
To Cook:1 can of black beans3 chicken breast tenders, thawed2 cups frozen chopped green bell peppers2 cups frozen chopped onions2 tbsp oil (your choice)2 tbsp water1 tbsp taco seasoningTo Put In A Ziplock Baggie:2 tomatoes - chopped and placed in separate baggies1 cup shredded cheddar cheese - 1/2 placed in two separate baggies
Directions
Place the oil, water, onions, green bell peppers and 1/2 tbsp of taco seasoning in a small frying pan and cover. Stir occasionally. Cook to desired tenderness - mine took about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile - Open and drain can of black beans and place in a medium size bowl.

When onions and peppers are done, scoop out of the pan and put on top of the black beans... leaving the seasoned liquid.

Cook the chicken in the liquid left from the onions and peppers. Add the other half of the taco seasoning to the chicken after it has cooked a bit.

Chop up the chicken when it's all done and add to the bowl - gently mix everything being careful not to squish the black beans.

Scoop 1 1/2 cups of the mixture into two separate containers.

After reheating at work, add a baggie of tomatoes and cheese then enjoy!
