This is by no means the healthiest thing you will ever eat but still rather tasty. Could use a bit more spice but thats an easy fix

This is okay if your goal is to get nonmeat protein into your child. Bland.

Great recipe! I used fire roasted tomatoes and black beans. The tomatoes gave it a wonderful smokie flavor. I'll definitely make this again.

my daughter does not eat meat and the beans were a good way to get her protien. we used ranch style beans and it gave it a little more flavor. we did not add all the chili powder to it the beans had enough spice. she would make it again!

How is white pasta with processed powdered cheese healthy? I'll skp that, add whole wheat noodles with the beans, tomatoes and spices; Add a side of steamed veggies and some soy milk, and I've got a meal.

I rated this 4 stars because I added BOCA ground meatless burger, chopped green pepper, and a touch of Worcestershire sauce. Everyone liked it a great deal.
