Notes

Substitutes:
  • Make your own shredded chicken if you prefer over rotisserie 
  • Frozen or canned corn. 
  • Honey in place of maple syrup
  • Lemon or lime juice. We prefer fresh.
Storage:
Place leftovers in a container and store in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can freeze for up to 3 months. Consider adding the avocado's when ready to eat to prevent them from browning.
