So glad I found your recipe, it is delicious and so easy to customize. I used onion, bell pepper, garlic, tomatoes and a can of diced chilis in the mix with the meat. I also made my own spice blend with chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt and pepper. I had mine on salad greens with salsa for a low calorie dinner. My DH had his in tortillas...

Me in my kitchen, and at the Wild game.
I am a photographer, portrait and fine art, and I am a yoga instructor. Besides cooking, I enjoy fitness and yoga, reading, organizing, gardening, puzzles, family, and HOCKEY. GO WILD!!!! I love to cook for my large husband...he is a natural powerbuilder and has a lot of muscle to feed. People ask how he got so "huge" and he has to answer, my cooking of course!
We both work out a lot, so we eat a lot of healthy food...I cook a LOT! The recipes I post and save to my cookbooks are usually healthy and lower calorie, or can be adapted to be so.
