A Pinterest Fail & How Goya Saved the Day.

I saw a Mexican inspired restaurant on Pinterest that I was sooo excited to try.   Here is a link back to the original pin for Chicken Enchilada Skillet.

 Doesn't it look good? Unfortunately, I had read the recipe wrong and bought tortilla chips instead of tortillas.   Oopsie!

I had to go to plan B and since I had the chicken and tortilla chips I thought I could make nachos.  What really made these nachos even better was I had some Goya products that I could add to the mix.  Bzzagent had sent me three Goya products to test.


The adobo all purpose seasoning is what I added to my leftover rotissere chicken before topping the nachos.  I really enjoyed the extra kick the adobo seasoning gave the chicken. 

I simply put down a layer of tortilla chips and covered with adobo chicken, diced tomato, salsa and cheese.  Baked in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until the cheese was bubbly. 

Half the family likes beans and half doesn't so we added the beans on at the end for those who wanted it.  I don't think there was a noticeable difference in them being low sodium.

The star of the show for me was the yellow rice.  It was easy to prepare and was a tasty side dish. I usually mess up rice by not cooking it enough.  Tommy complains my rice can be crunchy, but this was just perfect.  I would totally buy this again.

Have you had any Pinterest recipe fails?  I would love to hear about them.

*I was given Goya products for free to test and give my honest opinion of Pin It Now!
