Chicken Tacos

We had friends over for dinner last week and I wanted to try out a new recipe. I found this one [I believe] in the latest edition of Good Housekeeping. Not only was it delicious, but it's very healthy too!

Ingredients

• 3 cups cabbage-slaw mix
• 1 cup shredded carrots
• 1 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves, fresh
• 1 1/4 cup red or green salsa
• 1 can reduced-sodium black beans, rinsed and drained
• 2/3 cup frozen (thawed) corn
• 1/4 tsp. ground cumin
• 2 cups shredded chicken breast meat
• 8 small taco-sized whole grain tortillas

1. In a large bowl, mix together the slaw mix, carrots, cilantro, and 3/4 cup salsa; set aside.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine the beans, corn, cumin, and 1/8 tsp each of salt and pepper. Heat on medium for 3-5 minutes, or until hot, stirring occasionally. Gently stir in the chicken.

3. While the bean mixture heats, wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel. Microwave on high for 1 minute, or until warm. Serve the chicken mixture in tortillas topped with slaw mixture.

I topped with a little sour cream, some more salsa, and a dash of hot sauce for extra kick :)

Enjoy!
