Cut the recipe in half and I did add some chuck roast I had plus the ground beef and added some diced tomatoes I also had left. Other than those additions I followed the recipe. Topped with cilantro, sliced green onions and cheese. This is a good recipe and one I definately will make again. Made for New Kids on the Block tag game.
