    At Wal Mart. It used to be under the Sam's Club label but is now under the Great Value label called All Natural White Corn and Black Bean Salsa. Enjoy!

    Making this tonight with regular chunky salsa in place of the bean / corn salsa. This is my first time making quinoa, so it'll be an adventure! :-) - 3/18/10

    My whole family loved this! Husband said it was like a Brunswick Stew. Four picky kids who are sick of chicken really liked it too. - 3/8/10
