I didn't use the green chili because I didn't have any. I also didn't use low sodium, but I did drain and rinse the beans and corn before dumping them in the bowl. I used about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of Spice Exchange's MANGO GINGER HABANERO grilling and glazing SAUCE (comes in a bottle from Henry's) instead of the Trader Joe's cilantro salad dressing and added about 1-2 tbsp. fresh chopped cilantro leaves. I used 5-6 splashes of original Cholula sauce instead of Tabasco and added no pepper. I also added the juice of 1/2 of a lime.
