I keep precooked shredded chicken in the freezer so I used that. I doubled the recipe but didn't use the pepper. I also used canned white corn instead of frozen. I used 2 cups of mexican blend cheese and 2 cups of brown rice. We thought it needed more seasoning so I added another packet of taco seasoning. My family also put hot sauce on their serving. We enjoyed this for something different. It was a quick, easy meal.

This was a great quick meal. I only made 2 servings and substituted green pepper and half an onion for the corn and red pepper. I also used brown rice instead of white. I will definitely be making this again.

This was really good and really easy. I added fresh chopped tomatoes at the end and I was out of sour cream, but next time I'm going to add that as well. I think that would make it perfect. Oh and don't be worried about the amount of taco seasoning....it smells really really spicy when you pour it in...scared me a lot! But it ended up being nice and mild but with a little bite. this is definatly a keeper.
