It is slightly on the plain side until you add salsa and sour-cream and then Wow! It's perfect.. I used a little more chicken then it calls for which is awesome because now I left overs!

I made it exactly as the recipe suggested and did not add anything to it. It was a little plain & ordinary. But as some of the other reviews suggested, I think with onion, tomatoes, salsa, etc added to it, would make it much more tasty
