This was super easy to put together and very tasty. I did add salt and pepper. But other than that, I followed the recipe as posted. We all enjoyed it tonight. I think I might try adding some cheddar cheese to it next time and serve it with sour cream. Thanks for posting an easy and great tasting recipe.
