Recipe Notes

I start light on the salsa because it’s often too spicy for my kids.

 

Shredded jackfruit very closely resembles shredded chicken and easily absorbs flavor in dishes such as this. It is however not a high-protein food, so when using in place of chicken it’s good to have other sources of protein, such as cashew sour cream, refried beans, etc.
