This was a pretty nice, safe recipe. I enjoyed it quite a bit, and my boyfriend liked it a lot. Although, I did feel as though the mixture was missing something. Maybe salt? I'm not sure, but I look forward to tweaking this recipe in the future!

Just made this - everyone loved them. I didn't have canned tomatoes so used some salsa instead. Very tasty.
