Thank your sister-in-law, for the recipe and thank you for posting it. I fixed it last night for my husband and I. WE really liked it, but my husband thought it was a little too much, sauce.Will cut back next time. Also, i used a combination of colby and monterey cheese, combined. Worked out great. Thanks, MayorLady.

There wasn't a lot of flavor in this dish. I will probably make it again, but will add taco seasoning and/or garlic to the beef. Fresh chopped onion may help as well.
