I made this on 8/11/08 for the " Crockpot Cooking Challenge 2008" in the Cooking Photo Forum. And I'm pleased to be the first one to make and review this recipe. I did however have to make a few changes due to what was on hand. Instead of the store bought soup mix, Recipe#186221 was used.I didn't have canned diced tomatoes so, a 10 ounce can of mild ro-tel tomatoes were used,and a small fresh tomato was diced and added to make up the weight difference.Also, only used 1 can of green chilies,since that was what I had.Before placing the meat in the crockpot, I browned it slightly to give the meat a little color. My SO really enjoyed the taste and texture. But being the whimp that I am, it was just too much on the spicy side for me. If he wants this again, I'll add some sour cream to my serving to "tone down the bite" abit.Thanks for posting, and "Keep Smiling :)"

I live with my husband, four cats, and a sweet mutt named Jada in Scarborough, Ontario, where I work as an elementary school administrative assistant. I have a 31 year old daughter who lives with her boyfriend in nearby Don Mills, along with my sweet granddogs, Frankie and Turbo. I would have to say that my passion is animals, since I have so many of them! <img src=http://images.quizilla.com/H/h0t5auce/1108834307_brown_answer.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/532663/cookswithcattitude.JPG alt= /> <img src=http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r271/copperhorse58/CalendarGirlsSwap2009.jpg alt= /> If I had a month off work to do what I please, I would first catch up on my sleep and then just have fun - see a few movies and maybe take a couple of short trips - something that wouldn't break the bank - lol!
