    this sound really great except I would also jazz it up with some salsa and black beans and use brown rice instead of white PLUS it is simple enough to give to a single fellow I know who doesn't cook well. - 2/23/09

    I too added to this recipe to give it more flavor. I used chopped cooked chicken, brown rice, corn, salsa, black beans, fresh cilantro, taco seasoning and sauteed onions. Mixed it all up, baked 35 min, topped with cheese, then served with light sour cream and baked tortilla chips. Yum! - 3/17/08

    I am with stacy_md. I was expecting more.
    I added sauted onions, 1/2 c. chicken broth and 1/2 packet taco seasoning after cooking the day before. I mixed in 1 can black beans with cheese on top. Baked another 15 minutes.
    The result was more flavor and more moist.     - 9/11/07

    I quadrupled this recipe to feed my whole family. Used four chicken breasts, then three cups rice, three cups salsa, two cups water and 2 cans cream corn. The cooking time had to be extended to 75 minutes but the finished meal was DELICIOUS! My family loved it and there are plenty of leftovers! - 5/20/11
