This is something I tried for the first time this last weekend. After researching many GR recipes and working with what I had in the pantry...I just went with what I had on hand. And then the next day or 2 I am thinking, I could've put that in there too! Read more LOL I've gotta admit I was a bit nervous about making it. I think it turned out really well. You really need shredded cheese and sour cream to finish it off. I also topped it with fresh chopped tomato and green onion. (this recipe utilizes leftover grilled chicken from the nite before but like I said, just use what you've got and go with it) See less
