This was so yummy! I had my 16 year old son make this and it was wonderful (he is a culinary student). We used a few strips of turkey bacon cut up then cooked in place of the bacon bits. I also used a tex-mex seasoning I make that is salt free instead of the southwest seasoning as that is what I had on hand. I served it with baked red potatoes and steamed green beans. It was way better than the full fat/calorie versions that I have had in the past. So easy, quick and tasty. Thanks for posting this, it will be a regular at my house.

Too good to be true! It's very easy to make and uses ingredients that I always have on hand. My very picky husband loved it - he hates when I try new recipes that are supposed to be "low calorie" or "healthy" - but he didn't even realize that this one was both! It is definitely a keeper!
