This was delicious! I also added taco seasoning to the ground beef for an extra zing and also a can of black beans. Also, be careful with the thickness of your potato slices. I had to bake it a bit longer, as I cut mine too thick. Next time I will slice them thinner! Other than that, it was great! - 8/28/08

This was ok but I won't make it again. Layers are sparse; used a smaller size pan. It REALLY needs something-- tomatoes w/chilis maybe. Or instead of cheese on top, some sort of cheese sauce mixed in. I used taco seasoning-- the meat & veg part tasted good but potatoes were VERY bland. - 11/2/14
