“Excellant! Family favorite. I don't add the re-fried beans, serve them on the side as some don't like them. Also added garlic. Fresh cilantro is a must!!”
Fran O Overland Park, Ks

“Very easy and yummy. I used wheat tortillas to make it even healthier - you wouldn't even know the difference. I will make again.”
