I added a bit of onion and green pepper to the meat while it was cooking. I used 2 cans of black beans and I used beef broth instead of water because I couldnt find a can of black bean soup. I doubled the recipe for lunches for this week. Well, it is Tuesday and all my lefotvers are gone! We really loved it. Really, really good. Thanks!

This was very good and easy. I used beefy mushroom soup because I couldn't find black bean. I made this to have for my lunches this week and it will be made again.
