I love this! I add a can each of black beans & corn to the beef & onion mixture along with the salsa, letting it simmer for a few minutes before layering over the potatoes. I skip the bell pepper if I don't have one on hand, and it's still delicious.<br/><br/>This is very tasty! Two out of three of my kids agree, and the third one doesn't like much of anything. It's also quick & easy. Thanks for a great recipe!

We were in the mood for something spicy after all the rich Thanksgiving fare, so I chose this for a quick meal. It's great, especially since most people usually have all the ingredients on hand. I cut the butter down to 2 Tbls. and used 1/2 ground turkey with 1/2 lean ground beef and topped with reduced-fat cheddar cheese. I sauteed the onion and pepper together with the meat. This would be good with corn &/or black beans added in. Tasty, quick weeknight meal! Thanks for sharing!
