I don’t know about you, but things have been crazy hectic in my neck of the woods. It’s been my saving grace to throw a meal into the slow cooker and have it ready for those evenings that I don’t feel like putting a lot of time and effort in to dinner. Between my Slow Cooker Vegetarian Chili and this, we’ve been pretty set. I’m excited to continue to find and make healthier versions of our favorite typically guilty comfort foods. I love Mexican food, so when I found this I knew it was something that both me and my husband would love. It’s delicious! It’s warm, it’s comforting, and it’s guilt-free: all the things we want in our meals. Give it a try, I’m sure you will love it too!

I personally thought it was a little salty but the fam loved it. Simple and delish. I wanted to put some red and yellow peppers in, but forgot.

Can’t wait to try this, love how simple it is.
Yvonne
It’s just as delicious as it is simple!
Hi Yvonne…
How many people will this recipe feed? I’m participating in a frozen food crock pot swap and need a recipe to feed a family of 6. Hope to hear from you soon. :o)
Yvonne
Hi Tracy! I honestly don’t recall, but if I had to guess I would say 4-6. You could 1 1/2 the recipe or double it to be certain it would feed enough people. Hope you like it, it’s a tasty one!
I actually have all of these ingredients in my house! Do you think I could substitute the whole milk for skim?
Yvonne
Yep! You could use any milk you’ve got on hand, we only buy whole milk – but any would work! I hope you like it!
Yvonne this looks delish! I love your bowls…..good minds think alike.!!
Yvonne
Thanks Jonna! Right?! Great minds for sure!
