  2. I thought that this was really good!Next time I might add a half more chilpote pepper for some extra heat!I added some extra corn and some black beans to it.I also added some extra cheese to it.I might leave out some of the hamburger next time and add some more veggies to make it a little more me.I also think that I might add some fresh baccon peices to the potato mixture to give it a little bit of a smokey flavor.This will bill be made lots more times in my family!Thanks for the recipe!
     
  3. This was really great - definately a keeper! A little too spicy for my daughter, so she missed out! I would add more green chilis next time, just because they were so good in it!
