    This recipe was really great. For any Canadians out there, I used a can of President's Choice Southwest Bean Medly in place of the kidney beans. I also used 2 tsp of chili powder and 1 tsp cumin. I also added 2 cloves of chopped garlic in place of the powder. Excellent - I will definitely make this again!!

    I am so very pleased with this recipe. Not only was it easy and fast. I had everything on hand. I had leftovers. This freezes very well. I also added more chili powder and more Cumin. This is just a great dish in my book and it will be used over and over by me. Hugs

    I made this for dinner last night. The kids couldn't get enough. Instead of tomato sauce, I did use canned tomatoes and a combo of colby jack, cheddar and mozzarella, just because I had little bits left in each bag to use. I served each topped with a scoop of sour cream. Definitely a keeper, thanks for sharing!
