Nice quick meal for an evening when you just aren't feeling like cooking. I put the different toppings in containers so we could choose our favorite toppings, since my husband doesn't care for the same things as me. We used a different dressing.
0 HelpfulEasy to put together and enjoy! Tastes amazing with a bold, adjustable flavour palate and numerous textures. Definitely becoming a go-to dinner!
0 HelpfulI skipped the chips. That might have helped make this a little more flavorful? There were some bites I liked, but I think the beans needed a little something more.
