This is a very tasty dish and it was a treat used as a burrito filling. Served with sliced avocado and mixed greens. Loved it and will likely make again.

Great dish! This was delicious. I served it over corn cakes, topped with sour cream, pico de gallo, and green onion. Loved it. Thanks for sharing!

Was very good. I like to slightly improvise while cooking most recipes and this was no exception. I added 3 cloves of garlic and some cilantro in addition to the other ingredients. Served in a warm flour tortilla with sliced avocado and topped with sour cream. Thanks for posting a winner!!
