Introduction
This is a substantial Mexican meal that tastes wonderful when served with a homemade fresh salsa and corn warmed tortillas. I have attempted to trim fat and calories by substituting ground turkey for the original ground beef.

This was a great recipe. Low calories given the portion size which was more than filling. My family loved it and wants me to make it again and I certainly will. Fantastic, tasty "diet food" that you could serve to company. Does not at all taste like a diet food. Yum! - 7/24/09

I'm so pleased that it was a hit with you and your family. Hey, it's almost painless, this kind of "dieting," isn't it? LOL

Thanks for trying this! I will use Heart Healthy Bisquick myself in the future. One more thing: These are quite large servings, and most of us would easily be satisfied with only one-TENTH of the recipe. We also won't be accused of putting our families on a diet, so it's a win-win menu. : )
