Expert Tips

  • Kidney beans or pinto beans can be substituted for the black beans.
  • Look for already-shredded lettuce in the produce department.
  • Use refrigerated grilled beef strips, cut into pieces, instead of the chicken. Add a little heat kick by using Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeño peppers instead of the taco-seasoned cheese.
