    This was good. I also had it start to dry out, and since we like spicy, would probably add some diced green chilies or something. Definitely worth another chance! - 11/20/08

    it was a bit on the dry side but that isn't something that can't be fixed with next try. I will try to make it again. ;) thanks! - 11/11/08

    I found a another similar recipe with salsa in it. We actually liked it even better- less dry. I used the medium salsa for more spiciness.
