Incredible!
3 of 3 people found this review helpfulI made this tonight and put it over romaine lettuce - like a taco salad. It was filling and awesome. My DH even liked it. This is definitely a keeper. The only changes I made was I used "rotel diced tomatoes" drained and rinsed and used more garlic, added cumin & paprika. Thank you - 6/19/10

this recipe was eatable but that was about it. it was too bland. i had to use a little salt and my husband used tapatio. we wrapped the mixture in whole grain tortillas, but ,even with the hot sauce, he still left half on on his plate. we don't know what to do with the leftovers now :/ - 1/31/12

I tried it tonight. It was really good, though I added 2 T roasted garlic tomato paste, 1/2 t each cumin & paprika for extra flavor. Also, I used 1 can Fire Roasted Tomatoes Salsa Style from Adli's or you could substitute Rotel's for the diced tomato. I used Paul Dean's house seasoning instead, too. - 11/16/11

I'll admit I didn't expect much from this recipe. I decided to try it because I had all of the ingredients. We were pleasantly surprised by the great flavor! Even my 5 year old loved it! Our first foray with ground chicken. Very successful! We'll make this again and again. - 2/6/09

What is Grape Seed Oil? What are the advantages? - 11/8/08

Its similar to Olive Oil, and can be found in the same spot at the market. I have read that it helps lower bad cholesterol while raising the good one. I think it was in Bob Greenes book.
