This got mixed reviews from my husband and I. I loved it. I definitely think it's a 5 star recipe. My husband didn't care for it so much. He picked out the meatballs and just ate them. (He's not a huge salsa fan though, but if I disguise it enough he usually is fine with it lol) I did leave off the lettuce and sour cream though and just had the pie the way it was. I made it in a pie plate instead of a cookie sheet. Thanks for posting...I'll definitely make this again for myself when my husband isn't around. :)

My boys really loved this quick and easy recipe. We had no leftovers and I kept hearing from them to make it again soon.
