WW POINTS VALUE: 6 pts per plate

Note: This recipe appears in the WW in 20 Minutes Cookbook. I was in the mood for some comfort food and this dish hit the spot. I have become a fan of Mexican food and Tex-Mex food sine spending a month in Mexico. Ground chicken mixed in with any kind of herbs and spices is delicious. you can also use ground turkey or beef with this dish and it will still be delicious. If you don't have black bean and corn salsa, use another variety instead. I made the WW version  of Pico de Gallo Salsa in this and it still came out great. This is a very tasty comfort food that can be made on the weeknights for the whole family to love. I also think Iron Chefs Jose Garces and Bobby Flay would like these as well. Iron Chef Flay (or any other Celebrity Chef), if you're reading this, I still want to  challnege you to a Throwdown of any kind at Boston College.
