Expert Tips

Black beans are loaded with plenty of fiber—the soluble kind. Start slowly so you have time to get used to added fiber in the diet!

It is slightly on the plain side until you add salsa and sour-cream and then Wow! It's perfect.. I used a little more chicken then it calls for which is awesome because now I left overs!

I made it exactly as the recipe suggested and did not add anything to it. It was a little plain & ordinary. But as some of the other reviews suggested, I think with onion, tomatoes, salsa, etc added to it, would make it much more tasty
