The Husband and I loved this. The Cakes - no - but she's real picky. I made it according to the recipe, except for subbing a can of green chilies for the green pepper. (which Princess doesn't like) I think I may have over-baked it too. The recipe didn't say whether or not to cover it in the oven, so I didn't, nor did I check on it,so it got a bit dry. BUT, I'm willing to give it another shot! I had refrried beans on the side with queso fresco, and I added a little sour cream and Frank's Hot Sauce to my portion. Thanks Michelle!

This was great! I used brown rice and it was still a little crunchy but my family still loved it!! I used salsa because I didn't have chili sauce and diced tomatoes instead of whole. I also used red pepper instead of green and chicken instead of beef. I think that this would be a great recipe for the crock pot!! Thanks for the recipe! We will eat this again and again!
