This was just ok, not a lot of flavor and kind of mushy.

This was just okay. My daughter did not like it that much. My husband and I liked it, but not a favorite.

excellent dish....I substituted ground turkey for the gr. beef and added black beans. A new family favorite to add to the list.

This is one of my favorite things to eat. It's impossible to believe something low-cal can taste so fattening. I love that there is always extra filling and tortillas (I use low carb, high fiber, whole wheat tortillas and you cannot taste them in the recipe) so I can make burritos for lunch all week. It's easy to change up the recipe and it always turn out delicious!

This was a hit with our entire family (including our 4 year old son and 7 year old daughter. I added a can of black beans and used 1 lb. lean ground turkey breast instead of the ground beef.

My whole family loved this dish! We left out the onion (put in a little onion powder instead. Also added some black beans - yum! Will be making again!!
