Mexican Haystacks

This is one of our new faves.  Easy, delicious and everyone can put what they like on theirs.  Oh, and it’s delicious!

Ingredients:
– 2 cups Rice, white or brown, cooked
– 2 Roma Tomatoes, diced
– 1 Avocado, diced
– 2 1/2 cups Chicken, grilled and diced
– 4-6 Green Onions or Shallots, sliced
– 1-2 Mango, diced
– Cilantro, sliced
– Taco Seasoning Sauce (recipe below)
Taco Seasoning Sauce:
– 1 packet of Taco Seasoning
– 1/3 cup water
– 2 Tbsp Corn Starch
– 1 Tbsp Water
Directions:
– Cook the rice.  Dice or slice up everything else.
– Prepare the Taco Seasoning Sauce by combining the seasoning packet and the water in a small sauce pan on medium heat.  Mix well.  In a separate small bowl, combine the tablespoon of water and two tablespoons of corn starch.  Mix until there are no lumps.  Pour the corn starch mixture into the warm seasoning mix.  Stir until well combined.  Turn heat to simmer and stir occasionally.
Each person ca build their own ‘stack’.  Begin with rice and sauce and add any extra toppings as desired.  Enjoy!
Serves 4-6

I'm Krista. Ringleader here on While He Was Napping, wife to my handsome Mr. Right & momma to my THREE energetic boys, Big J (9), Little J (6) & Little N (4). We FINALLY added a beautiful little girl to our family last December.

I’m knee-deep in Tonka trucks & Thomas trains. I survive our crazy days with Vanilla Coke, Sonic slushies, sweet snuggles and little giggles. When I tuck them in tight & kiss them good night, I get a little time to create & just be me.
