    This was great. I used Rotel instead of the tomatoes and chilis, which gave it a nice kick. I would eat this every night, now that I've stopped eating meat. Thank you! - 7/20/10

    I added a can of stock and some orzo before the tomatoes. Needed more seasoning in my opinion. But once I jazzed it up it was delicious! - 1/25/08
