A quick and versatile recipe. It easily halves and accomodates personal preferences well. Jalapenos and cumin enhance everything--if you like them too, you'll enjoy this. An added bonus--low in carbs and adds fiber. I skip the chips part, but as Momma says, a good way to get those veggies down kids.
