    Yummy that sounds good, my 3 year old wont eat any thing unless it is wrapped in a tortilla shell. Then I leave out the rice. I didn't think to a cheese and sour cream, you would think that would be a given. Thanks.

    This was easy and delicious! I used frozen corn to lower the sodium, and for my kids I mixed a little low-fat sour cream into their servings. We loved it! - 7/17/09

    Quick and Yummy INDEED! Yes, cooking the rice and chicken take time, but from there, you throw everything (I took out the corn) into one pot and let it cook some more! Absolutely DELICIOUS! - 7/14/09

    Wow this sounds really good except for the corn...? Corn bothers me but I know maybe - 7/10/09

    If corn doesn't work for you I am sure you could substitute it with some thing, it is very versatile.

    I cooked this tonight and the three of us L O V E D it. I used two bags of Boil in a Bad and added it to the pan 30 mins into cooking. Also deleted any cheese and included one can of mixed veggies to the variety of flavor. Seasoned the chicken a little to much but but the "kick" came from the salsa. - 6/9/10
