    This was sooo good! I added a can of diced green chilis and it added a good kick. My husband absolutely loved this and is already requesting it again!

    I followed it but it was to much to put in my iron skillet. Only used part of the meat mixture and part of the cornbread mix. It’s in the oven so we will see.

    Please don’t drain the ranch style beans. They bean gravy gives the meat such a good taste.

    I use a can of tomatoes instead of rotel. Don’t like spicy hot.
