I absolutely loved this recipe and lucky for me it's not to high in calories, since I ate it for lunch and supper 2 days in a row!
The only change I made was omitted the beans (i'm not a fan of beans) and added extra diced peppers, onions and tomatoes to make up for it. Will definitely make again! - 4/16/11
