Very, very tastee. I didnt follow the instructions completely though. I browned my hamburger and sausage with the onions first and drained it. Then put everything together. I figured it would be greasy otherwise and I try to cut fat whereever I can. Thank you for the great recipe both my daughters loved it and thats very rare in my house.
