    Very easy to customize with your favorite toppings. We like to add sour cream and guacamole.

  • Emory Hoppe

    I added a can of diced tomatoes with green chiles for an extra kick, and it was delicious!

  • Darlene Wehner

    I found it a bit bland, so I increased the cumin and coriander to 1 teaspoon each. Much better!

  • Jasmin Jacobi

    Freezes well! I made a double batch and froze half for later.

  • Maurine Stanton

    Next time, I think I'll try using rotisserie chicken to save even more time.
