    The photo has that delicious fried flour tortilla, but it isn't in the recipe, or the calorie count. - 11/18/18

    The blended mix of flavors in this dish are wonderful! I was a little nervous about 2 teas of hot sauce..but ended up adding more since the corn, avacado, sour cream, toned it down...will definatley make again..maybe with chicken next time! I did add onion...delish! - 6/23/11
