I have made this several times, and it has always been a hit. I have only made this for adults, so I usually try to spice it up with green chilis or substitute a small jar of medium salsa instead of a can of diced tomatoes. This recipe is also super easy, which is great because I'm not a very experienced cook...yet. ;) -
Super good. I maybe would not use a whole can of refried beans, but that's just personal taste. Other than that, super good. -
This is one of my husband’s favorite recipes. I leave out the onions because he won’t eat them, and I use jalapeños instead of bell peppers. I also add in whatever else I may have in the house that I want to use up. For example, tonight I’m going to add half a can of salsa, some fresh garlic and a few Thai chili peppers. -
This was a hit in my house! I made two; one just as the recipe states and one vegetarian. The meat eaters loved theirs and I loved mine. I used a mix of cheddar and jack cheeses. -
I made this last night, just the way the recipe is stated. Everyone had seconds, even the kids! Very yummy!

I work in a pediatric office part time. I love to cook and my favorites are Paula Dean and Rachel Ray.
I have three grown sons, the youngest just entered the Navy. So now I am trying to adjust my cooking to fit just me and my husband.
