This chicken & rice taco fiesta recipe is the best I have ever tried and just had to share it with you!

I have a super delicious Mexican dish to share with you today! I recently joined eMeals and made this easy Chicken & Rice Taco Fiesta dish for the first time ever, and it was a huge hit in my house (even with my 4 year old daughter).
