"Taken from an iVillage message board. "We normally serve this in a bowl with a bunch of heated tortillas and chips and it's like chili con queso only more filling.""

  1. These were awesome! One of the easiest dinners I have made in a long time (especially since I had the ground turkey already browned and frozen in my freezer). I didn't have cheese whiz so I used half a jar of cheese pasta sauce and added corn. I also added bell peppers with about 45 minutes left to cook. I WILL be making them again.
     
  2. Good and easy to make. I followed the recipe other then I didnt' have any green chilies and we were snowed in so wasn't going to try and run out for some. I also made this on the stove top and not in my crock pot. We all enjoyed these.
     
  3. Very simple, yet very tasty. Only slight changes are that I brown the meat with Chopped Garlic and Red Onions. Left out the cheez whiz and topped the taocs with Fresh Cheese. Also added a healthy dose of Oregano.
     
  4. these are great even without the crockpot! I got side tracked and completely forgot to get dinner started so these were made on the stove top! I also didn't use cheese whiz but 2c shredded cheddar cheese and served these on tortillas with a little shredded lettuce and sour cream. The kids Loved it! This was an easy meal that took me all of about 20min on the stove and in one pan! So less mess, happy kids, and quick, what could be better?
     
  5. Excellent! No Cheez Whiz here in the Netherlands so I did without it, but for the rest followed the recipe ( well, DH did, he had this ready when I got home from work) the heat in this is amazing.. it's spicy but not overpowering .. DH likes heat more than I do but we both totally enjoyed this recipe.. and that's exactly what I like most about this recipe. Everything went wonderfully flavourwise, and I will be making this again soonest. Please see my rating system: 5 stars for simplicity and ease and great taste AND for managing to find a balance that suited DH and I both as far as the heat. An excellent weekday meal. Thanks!
