Yum, Yum!! This is going straight to my keeper file. So much flavor, very satisfying and so easy!! I used smoked sausage and fire roasted diced tomatos, which really complemented the flavors. I simmered it for 30 mins. to thicken. I may add a small can of diced green chilies next time just to experiment. Served it with Cornbread. My daughter stopped by and I sent some home with her and she already called and asked for the recipe. Thanks!

Yay! Five easy ingredients. This was a fun, yummy stew-like meal. I dumped everything into my crockpot (I didin't even saute the peppers and onions first) and cooked this on low for 6 hours. It turned out wonderfully! It's good, easy and filling. Thanx for sharing this recipe!
