What's on the Menu? On the fly soft tacos!

This post is for Nelson... you wanted to see my taco, so here it is!

Scenario: Hungry kids, 1/2 a rotisserie chicken, and a time crunch!

I stripped the chicken, cut it up and threw it in a pan with some onions and a little bit of oil. Sprinkled chicken liberally with chili powder, salt, cumin and black pepper and added a little bit of water to coat the chicken with the seasonings, then let it simmer low. Drained and rinsed a can of black beans and added them to the chicken to simmer. Sprinkle with some fresh cilantro and stir in just before serving.

I served it on warm tortillas with shredded Monterey Jack cheese, a good salsa and fresh greens from my garden. Quick (less than 20 minutes from start to table), easy and totally yummy! Kids loved it!
