Made the dish and had to add some salt as the low-sodium/low-fat made it very bland and needed some flavor. With a little pinch of salt the flavor kicked in and it was excellent.

We love this dish! I have the same recipe in one of my Betty Crocker slow cooker books. The only change that I suggest is using pepperjack cheese for the topping. That little extra zip is a really tasty addition.

Made this yesterday- thought it was just ok. Not sure what was missing- the beef was really tender.Probably will not make again.

I made the recipe as written. Used WalMart Southwestern Style salsa with corn, the full cup of cilantro, and jasmine rice.The DH and I enjoyed it very much. We'll be making this again. Thanks for posting!

I am a mother of three and live in central Pennsylvania. My children were very active in after school activities and found we weren't spending anytime together at meal time. In 1998, I decided to start cooking my dinners in a crockpot so that we could have a home cooked meal together once everyone came home. My children now get so excited to see what we are having to eat and love the smell when they walk in the door. My family calls me the crock pot queen. LOL I use my crock pot everyday of the year. My three children are now in college and before they come home they request their favorite meal. I still continue to cook in the crock pot for my husband and I. It is nice after a long day to know your meal is ready. It also helps in keeping my grocery bill down. With zaar, I can print my shopping list and that is all I purchase is the ingredients on that list. Now, my two daughters have been crock pot cooking while in college. They find it is easy to cook for the themselves and their friends. It is an easy way to have friends over for dinner after classes I still love trying new recipes and purchasing cookbooks, especially crock pot cookbooks. Happy Cooking!
