I mainly made this recipe the other day because I had some Pillsbury Seamless Dough that needed to be used up - and the recipe sounded fairly good and easy. My mom had just been up to visit the other weekend as well, and had brought with her some really good salsa. I thought it would be really tasty in this recipe. Mmmm! Salsa!
These turned out pretty good, and I ended up eating two of them. My husband ate three - guess he liked them, too! I did think that the chicken in the empanadas could have used more salsa, though. I ended up just dipping the empanadas in additional salsa as I ate them. Yum! I love salsa, especially since it doesn't really add any calories to the dish.
These empanadas were good, but not anything mind-blowing. I would consider making them again just because of how simple they were and how few ingredients they required (three! - just salsa, chicken, and dough). They were nice to snack on, but next time I would eat them with a salad to make it more of a meal.
