Are there black beans in this? It looks like it but I don’t see them listed. Either way I bet they would be a great addition to this. Looks like an easy lunch!
I am always looking for new pasta salads, because they turn salad into a meal. Thanks for this and and for the giveaways opportunity too.
This sounds like an easy meal to prepare using left over chicken. It would be especially good using grilled chicken. Thanks for the recipe.
