I love to try new foods all of the time. I often get asked what I have tried and what I am cooking tonight. So, this blog is a place I can not only share recipes, but tips and articles I have found along the way with all of my friends and family.

Zesty Chicken Fiesta w/ Zatarain's New Orleans style Spainsh Rice
I spooned the rice onto the plate and then added the chicken mixture.
Something that would be great on the side would be some cornbread, I thought of this after supper was done.
Zesty Chicken Fiesta
2 C cooked chicken breasts chunks (10-12 ounces)
1 can (15 ounces) low-sodium black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (14 ounces) non-salt added diced tomatoes (with juice)
1 T chili powder
1 C chopped avocado
1/2 t onion powder (optional, my add in)
1/2 t garlic salt (optional, my add in)
1/4 C fat-free sour cream
In a nonstick skillet, combine the chicken, beans, tomatoes, and chili powder. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Divide evenly among 4 salad plates and top each with 1/4 C of the avocado and 1 T of the sour cream.

***I served this without the avocado's and sour cream and it was awesome!***
Zatarain's New Orleans Style Spanish Rice
Prepare according to the box. I omitted the tomatoes because there are tomatoes in with the chicken.
