Expert Tips

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.

Stir-fry chicken strips not available? Buy the same weight of boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs, and cut up the meat yourself.

If you'd prefer, pinto beans can be substituted for the black beans.

This is my very first Betty Crocker Recipe I have made. I am trying to eat a healthier and I must say this was pretty tasty! I served it in a bowl w/out tortillas. I'm completely satisfied! I did make a couple changes. Instead of using taco seasoning and plain black beans I grabbed a can of Bush's chipotle black beans it has a little corn in it. Absolutely divine!
