Easy enough but an overall meh meal. I'd do something else with the rotisserie chicken I think.
0 HelpfulFell in Love with this! We eat it quite often and especially on our meatless fast days. Yum!
0 HelpfulI liked that this was fairly quickly, but it was only so-so, by the relatively high standards of other Cook Smarts recipes!
0 HelpfulI wanted to love this, but was underwhelmed. I tried using brown rice tortillas to make it Gluten Free, but should have gone with a better flatbread option. I forgot the lemon squeeze, I think the chicken needed that, it was a bit dry. I preferred the Vietnamese salad over this one.
