Optional--serve with lowfat cheddar or lowfat sour cream. You could also add 1/2 c. black or kidney beans to up the protein content (the nutritionals will change), but I left them out because I am the only one in the family who likes beans. To add more heat, use canned tomatoes with chiles or fire-roasted tomatoes.

    This is delish! I made it about a week ago and almost cried when it was gone. I had to make it again tonight. I just hate it takes so long to cook in the crockpot. I am really craving this bad. - 3/7/13
