This was so good and quick to get to the table! I added a bit more chili powder so it could have more of a kick, this one is a keeper :)

This is a great tasting recipe! Make it all the time just as listed EXCEPT I use 1 can of Rotel tomatoes with chilies instead of the reg.canned tomatoes.. & V8 for the juice. Excellent Flavor and quite healthy!

This was okay, but a bit strong for my taste.
