Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 to pasta shells stada brand
  • 1/4 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • ½ cup Mexican blend cheese I used Sargento, reduced fat, shredded
  • 1/2 cup avocado about 1 small, mashed
  • 1 lime halved, medium
  • kosher salt
  • 1 cup tomato chopped
  • ¼ cup onion white, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro chopped
  • black pepper freshly ground
  • 7 ounces cooked boneless (skinless chicken breast, cubed*)
  • 1/3 cup black beans rinsed, canned, drained
  • 1 jalapeno pepper sliced thin
  • 2 tbsp black olive sliced

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine the cheeses.
  2. In another small bowl, combine avocado, juice from half the lime, and a pinch of salt.
  3. In one more bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, cilantro, juice from the other lime half, ¼ teaspoon salt and black pepper, to taste.
  4. To assemble: Layer each with 1/3 cup chicken, 1 tbsp black beans, and sprinkle with 2 1/2 tbsp cheese. Broil for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Top each with a dollop of avocado and a spoonful of the tomato salsa, jalapeno black olives. Top each with a small sprinkle of salt.

Notes

  • *I seasoned 1 8 oz breast with 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper and threw it on the grill pan for 8 to 10 minutes on each side over medium heat.
