  1. Great Tex Mex casserole! I didn't want to go to the store, so I used Recipe #345502 and made the enchilada sauce from Recipe #58503 (neat recipe since it basically uses water and spices). My husband and I LOVED this dish and I will be sure to make it often. Recipe #212572 was a great topping for it. Thanks ffjeff for a great recipe and being a firefighter! Roxygirl
     
  2. I fixed this for dinner last night with a salad and pinto beans. My husband liked it better than I did. I thought it was too sweet. He said it was ok but he wouldn't want it on a regular basis. I think this recipe would appeal to children due to the sweetness.
