  Made this tonight and the family loved it. I did use Uncle Ben's boil in bag brown rice instead of rice listed simply because I did not have the other in the house. Wonderful and simple to make. - 3/15/10

  This was great! I made it last night and even my husband who hates "diet food" said it was wonderful. He liked it better than my normal high cal mexican casserole. I used the low cal cream of mushroom and 2% cheese and he didn't even notice :) - 3/5/10

  My husband and his friend loved this took it to their work and they ate the entire dish. Will make this again. I make my own taco seasoning to cut down on the sodium. - 11/23/09

  This is amazing! I used Cheddar Cheese soup instead of the Cream of Mushroom, and some "Ready Rice" to cut out dirtying up more pans. It was sooo good, and very easy. Thanks for sharing! - 2/8/09

  I absolutely love this recipe! I have made it over and over again for my family. I find it's a great comfort food without feeling sinful. I will mix it up sometimes when I make it, instead of ground beef I use ground chicken/turkey other times I used different low sod cream soups (e.g. chicken etc.) - 10/2/08

  We really enjoyed this recipe. I used Uncle Ben's Ready Spanish Rice and Mexican stewed tomatoes as I had those on hand. A serving is very filling. Will certainly make again! - 7/13/16

  My husband and I both really loved this dish. I added a whole can of tomatoes (instead of just 1 cup) on accident and it still turned out great. Pretty decent nutritionals for a dinner. The portion is pretty hearty so it fills you up. Yum! - 6/10/08

  My 13 year old son and 10 year old daughter loved it. I think I will add a small can of diced tomatoes next time.
  It was delicious! - 6/5/08

  sounds good, but I'm skeptical whether it's good for you. Lots of sodium, calories, and carbs. Make my own taco seasoning, so that will lower the sodium. I'll try it. - 6/1/08

  I am going to make this tonight for dinner...I am excited it looks very good..My whole house loves Mexican food..

  This was really good. It tastes very much like something you would get at a fast food joint, which is not a bad thing. You know, one of the taco places. - 5/29/08

  I plan on trying this but I am not real big on packaged 'mexican' foods. I will do the rice but instead of a package... I will use regular rice with a little tomato sauce to replace some of the cooking broth (I always use beef or chicken broth to make rice.) and sprinkle some cumin and chili powder. - 5/26/08

  Tastes good, I'm sure - but look at the nutritionals! This is a website dedicated to healthy living.
  Just because you make it at home, doesn't make it healthy! - 5/26/08

  Not very healthy. tortilla chips, white rice, cream of mushroom soup, ewwwwww. Look at that sodium! One glance at the nutritional value....no fiber to speak of per serving, 16g of fat! I would not consider this a healthy dish at all. - 5/26/08

  sounds good and will probably make it, with variations, like ground turkey, cumin and chili powder, definately less jalepenos (allergic). Can see it would work in this house! - 5/26/08

  I would make this with the boca crumbles to make it vegetarian and use the chile powder and cumin instead of the taco seasoning to reduce the sodium. It's on the menu for this week. - 5/26/08

  You can leave out the taco seasoning; Use chili powder, cayenne, and cumin to still get the taco flavor. I used to use taco seasoning all the time until I realized that cumin is what gives it's characteristic flavor; leave out the sodium, etc. of the taco seasoning and you won't miss it, I promise! - 5/26/08

  Those of you worried about sodium & processing...I am going to try this next week but with these changes:
  -BROWN rice
  -chilli powder vs taco seasoning
  -multigrian organic chips or I may just use whole wheat tortillas! If you bake them a bit until crunchy
  -fat free sour cream vs the mushroom sou - 5/26/08

  Too much sodium. This recipe contains nearly 50% of the daily RDA of sodium. Using reduced sodium ingredients should help. - 5/26/08

  I did this with turkey rather than beef. In recipes with lots of flavor, I've found you can tell the difference and it reduces fat by quite a bit. - 1/20/08

  I have very picky eaters at home, and they all loved this and asked for more. That makes any recipe incredible in my book! I used ground turkey for the meat, and substituted spanish rice. Also used fat free cheese, and lower sodium soup. Yummy! - 11/9/07

  Just got done with dinner and I will be making this dish again. I could not find the Mexican rice, so I used Spanish Rice instead. Also, next time I think I will leave out the tortilla chips and serve them on the side along with some shredded lettuce and non-fat sour cream. - 10/26/07

  My whole family really loved this. It was a little high in calories however, for the amount you get, so next time I will use Baked Scoops and ground turkey. I added fat-free sour cream at the table to tone down the spiciness. My kids added ketchup and loved it. - 9/12/07

  Loved this recipe. Changed it a little to make it veggie friendly. Used Quorn Grounds instead of ground beef, added extra half cup of cheese on top (just because I could) and added a can of black beans. Result: YUMMY - 3/30/07

  My husband and I ate this last night. It was great! I don't eat meat, so I kept the ground beef separately, and he added it on top of his. We added a little quick guamacole dip from Denise Austin's receipe, and it added a little extra touch. Highly recommended. - 3/27/07
