A little dry and spicy but good.

Loved this recipe but needed to add extra salsa the second time I made it since the first time the bottom got burned.

This is very good, and so easy. I did add a can of kidney beans and used the whole package of taco seasoning, and whole jar of salsa. I served it over rice. Unfortunately I forgot the cheese, but I don't think it needed it. I do agree the peppers get a little over cooked but since I wasn't home to add them later, it was ok. I will defintely be making it again, everyone loved it.

I've made this recipe twice now and it is so yummy! Very quick and easy to put together and smells great cooking all day. It's a new favourite in our household.

This was great! Very tasty. Used 2-tbsp tex mex seasoning rather than the taco packet to save on sodium. Also added half a can of black beans. Severed with warmed large tortillas and sour cream on the side. Will be making again for sure. Super easy.

Simple and great tasting. The first time I made it I found it too runny (partially because of using less chicken). The next time I made it I added some Uncle Ben's Spanish rice. Wow! It was great and a little more filling with the rice.
