A sustaining, very filling meal. A little too sweet for my taste. Would decrease the brown sugar amount.

Wonderful flavor! Omitted the corn chips. We enjoyed this for lunch today. I'm sure it will become one of our favorites. Easy preparation. Prepared as a participant in the Sept 2009 Aus/NZ Swap #32.
