        Heather, 13×9 is great. I think 8×8 might be too small. Not sure.

    Cilantro is an acquired taste. When I first moved to Southern California 30 years ago I couldnโ€™t stand the smell of cilantro. But over the years and being exposed to Mexican food many different ways I have come to love it.

    My family loved this. Said it was definitely a keeper. I made some modifications to this though. I made it in a 9″ x 13″ casserole as I wasn’t sure what size to use based on the recipe. I cooked 1 lb. of chicken in olive oil first. Then increased the onion to a whole onion and bell pepper (which I increased to 2 whole red peppers diced) that I sauteed with the chicken. I used 2 cups tortilla chips and a 1 lb container of sour cream with 2 cups Mexican blend cheese, 16 oz jar of salsa and 1 full can black beans. . .so basically I doubled the recipe, except I quadrupled the red peppers. It turned out great. Not sure what the olive oil does however to WW points as I don’t do WW.
