Dee-lish! I'm going to start using ground flax more often, and also turkey instead of chicken breasts. I had everything made in advance so an impressive dinner was ready in 15 minutes. It would be even better with diced avocado; I didn't see it on the ingredient list, only the directions. By the way, Newman's Lighten Up! Lime is my favorite bottled salad dressing...yum!
