    Spicy shredded chicken - Utilize rotisserie chicken, pull the meat from the bone and tear into 1" shreds.
Mix in either chipotle puree, crushed red pepper, or your favorite dry spicy chili powder into the chicken.
    Chorizo - A few fan favorites are Cacique and El Mexicano found at local grocery store.
    Queso - A few fan favorites are Tostitos and Herdez found at your local grocery store. 
    Pico de gallo - Homemade, store-prepared, or you could use fresh diced tomatoes and onions.
