Make the Most of This Recipe
Health Twist
Boost your fiber with beans. Filled with many other important nutrients, beans are an excellent source of fiber that's so important for good blood glucose management and to keep your digestive tract moving.
Substitution
Stir-fry chicken strips not available? Buy the same weight of boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs, and cut up the meat yourself.
Substitution
If you'd prefer, pinto beans can be substituted for the black beans.
