This was good and easy to make. I used ground beef and minced onions. I also used the chicken broth and a whole packet of taco seasoning. I also added picante sauce as we thought it needed it. I didn't have any sour cream but think it would been great with it on top. I used the cheese soup but think it would have been better with the fiesta soup.

I made this exactly as posted, but felt that it needed more taco seasoning, so I increased it 3 x (Almost used the whole seasoning pkg). Although it tasted fine just like that, I wanted a little more color, so I added the suggested corn and black beans. I topped it with salsa and sour cream. This dish cried out for a few chopped green onions sprinkled on top, but I didn't have any. Next time I'll add some jalapeno's and some freshly chopped cilantro. Thanks for posting! Made for Fall PAC 2009.

I can't beleive I forgot to review this recipe. Made a couple weeks ago for dinner- and we thoroughly enjoyed it. I was leery of the canned soup, as I really do not like cooking with them, but the dish came out great. I only added some cayenne pepper because we like things hot, but that was the only change I made. This will definately be made again. Thanks for posting.

After seeing the photos of this recipe that Chef#481092 had taken, I knew I had to make it. So on 4/21/09 I did.:)As the turkey was cooking, a bit of chopped onion was added. For the soup,a Southwestern Pepperjack Blend was used.Instead of using a store bought taco seasoning, Recipe#199955 was used.I want to thank Chef Vicki in CT for the suggestion of the tomatoes on the top. And I went just a bit further by adding some lettuce and shredded cheese to the top.My SO and I both really enjoyed the spicy taste.This will be made again. Thanks for posting and, " Keep Smiling :) "

Hello! I'm a stay at home wife and mom who has just fallen in love with cooking. I was scared when I first got married that it was going to be the typical first year of burnt food but strangely enough, I've got a knack for it. It's my husbands joke that after he got married, he lost weight and coworkers asked if my cooking was that bad...he'd tell them no, she just actually cooks without adding a pound of grease to everything like my grandmother!
