Ever get the feeling while you are cooking dinner that it is going to be disgusting and you should just bag it and call for a pizza?

Tonight was leftover night.  I had some leftover Marinated Chicken Alla Griglia from the other day so I thought I’d shred the chicken and make chicken tacos.  As I was shredding it, I was thinking that the combination of the chicken alla griglia with salsa verde was not going to be a good one.  I even mentally worked myself up into thinking it would actually be disgusting.

Not wanting to waste the meal, I took the salsa verde out of the freezer and started simmering the chicken in it.  I started to get a queazy stomach from cooking dinner.  I contemplated calling my husband and asking him to pick up a pizza on his way home,  but I held steady.

When my husband came home, I asked him to look in the skillet and see if he thought dinner would be too gross.  The great thing about my husband is that it would have to be pretty bad for him not to eat it.  So we got the cheese and tomatoes and he even added Salpica Peach Mango salsa to the tacos.

With enough “extras” covering up the chicken alla griglia/salsa verde combination, we were able to stomach dinner.  I did notice however, we only had one taco each.  Our daughter had a cheese quesadilla — apparently she is the brains of the operation!
