Jason: 4.75 out of 5
Thoughts:
It took us about 30 minutes from start to ready to serve. Jason said he gave this meal a 4.75 because the rice wasn't cooked like he liked it. He said he loved the rest of the meal just didn't like the rice because it was undercooked. I enjoyed this meal except for the rice but I don 't like rice to begin with so I should have probably gave it a 5 and forgot the rice. I didn't think I liked black beans but you couldn't even taste them so that was great! I also added sour cream and 100 calorie wholly guacamole and those two mixed with the Mango Peach Salsa was AMAZING! Overall a very easy meal and very filling.
