WE LIKED IT! Second time making it, I made this up ahead for a camping trip this weekend and everyone enjoyed it. I used enchilada sauce in place of the tomato sauce for extra flavor. Please see my rating system as I rate tougher than most.

We felt the same as NewlyWedChef... too dry, salty and oniony for our tastes; a second go-round w/ enchilada sauce helped immensely. Thank you for posting!

Too dry - too many chips and onion for our preference. Doesn't make good leftovers, chips are soggy.

Excellent dish! Made this as writtin, but I forgot to buy chilies so I made mine w/o. It was still fantastic. I had very little left afterwards, and the rest went for lunch today. Thanks so much for this!
