Very nice recipe. Some of the quantities were a guessing game so sharing what worked for us. For a full recipe, I used 14 oz tomatoes, 1 cup olives (used green vs black), 4 oz green chilies, 6 oz beans (used black vs pinto), 14 oz taco seasoning, 1 1/2 cup chips & 12 oz cheese (mozza, monterey, cheddar blend). Increased the beef abit. Sauted the garlic with the onions/beef. Nice flavours & it works well when you use a salsa you like. Thanks for sharing.

This was tasty! I skipped the olives for my DH doesn`t like them. It would be a help to have the size amounts on the ingredients as the tomatoes can come in many sizes from 6 ounces to 14 ounces to 28 ounces. As with the olives, chilies, beans and the chips also come in different sizes. I topped with sour cream and additional salsa. Thanks!

Born in Aroostook County, Maine. Have lived in New York City, Lake Placid, NY, San Diego, CA, St. Petersburg, FL, Santa Rosa, CA and am now living in Tucson, AZ. I am now retired and love to crochet. I'm always looking for new, easy recipes. My favorite cookbook is the Internet, especially Recipezaar. One of my pet peeves? People who don't run a spell check on items they have submitted or just don't edit their items. My grandson just returned from Afghanistan after having been there for a year. He also spent a year in Iraq. I'm very proud of my handsome grandson and my 2 beautiful great-granddaughters.
