This made for a great family supper last night. Made this using ground buffalo. Used one cup of ketchup and a cup of canned tomatoes. With buffalo being a sweeter meat I cut the sugar. They loved it! There was just enough left over for the hungry twelve year old to spread on a sun dried tomato tortilla later in the evening. A rerun has already been requested. Thank you for sharing.
