Chicken Tacos - 195


This meal was the ultimate in "cleaning-out-the-refrigerator" experiences. We just happened to have everything on hand for some filling, nutritious, and delicious CHICKEN TACOS. As you can see from the picture (I hope) we made up bowls of everything we would put into a warmed corn tortilla, then ate dinner in the living room as we watched a movie and finished off these odds and ends. Our chicken tacos consisted of shredded chicken that we had packaged and frozen after make the chicken stock that we froze for several recipes; crumbled feta cheese; salsa de chipotle y tomatillo; chopped lettuce; and sliced avocado.

Assembling each taco was the only challenge. These tortillas we were finishing up were excellent, but they only come in one size - small. Rather than eating only 3 tacos each, we were afforded the luxury of eating 5 each, and using up more of the leftovers in the process!

A memorable meal on the night before leaving town. Now all that remains in the refrigerator is a plastic bowl of white onions and the typical assortment of condiments, pickles and jellies in the door. It will be fun to return and fill it little by little with the items that turn into our daily Mexican menus. More from the road...
