I made these and they turned out excellent! I couldn't find the taco sauce with chicken it called for so I used 2 1/2 cups of canned chicken and added a packet of taco seasoning to it and then a jar of taco sauce. It turned out excellent!! I also added some cheese to the chicken mixture which was a good touch. Can't wait to make this again!!

This recipe sounds great and I can't wait to try it. But what do you do with the corn and the cornmeal? Add both to chicken/taco sauce mixture and heat before putting into the cups? Thanks!
