Tasty- added zip

I modified this a little to what I had in my fridge. I used ground turkey, black beans instead of kidney, and added a jalapeno (with seeds), and sprinkley a little queso fresco on the top.

Pros: Healthy, very filling, very easy, flexible

Tasty

This recipe was easy and tasty, but is about 400 calories when I added up everything at home for my husband and I. Next time I'll leave out the cheese, b/c for that small amount it wasn't necessary and adds 110 extra calories. Will make again.

I doubled the recipe for a family of 4 (with 2 teens) and everyone LOVED it! I added a bit of taco seasoning mix to give it more flavour after reading some of the other comments. My kids are picky eaters so I wasn't sure if they'd go for it - but now they want me to make it on a regualar basis. We all really enjoyed it!

LOVE IT! I am eating it now and had to share. I cooked it for my very masculine ;) boyfriend and I and we both are in love! I used black beans in stead of kidney beans. Highly recommend it!
