I did not like it. very bland.

Susan Badgio 2 years ago

Excellent starting point. Like the others, I added a LOT more spices. Also added a diced onion and diced bell pepper (3 colors, for the visual effect). Served with tortilla chips and a salad. Super good!

Made it with sound beef instead of turkey - super delicious! Thank you!

The meat just ended up tasting bland needed more seasoning

Absolutely delicious. Enjoyed by everyone including the pickiest of nieces.

Tasted good. Bland, so definitely add more seasoning. To be honest... Its really just a Mexican chilli with cheese melted on top. There is nothing to hold it together. When you plate it, it just spreads out like chilli.

Delicious. So easy to make. My type of recipe

Excellent!!! Followed recipe, but might add some “extras” like sour cream & olives. Left out the “heat” as my husband is sensitive to that and it was still great.

Rich 4 years ago

It seemed a bit bland to me even after doubling the spices. I added some salt and garlic and I put more cheese.

Redmon 4 years ago

Very easy to make and it was tasty.

Definitely double the spices! I also added some taco seasoning to mine and served it with a spoon of non fat Greek yogurt.

KarrenRose 5 years ago

Easy to make, and it was good but I added it on a tostada shell.

Laurie Mabery 5 years ago

Everyone loved it! I served over brown rice. Making it again tonight for a pot luck!

Easy to make however I had to spice it up a bit for my family. Living in New Mexico it’s always fun to try new recipes with a Mexican twist

Noelia Ferreira 5 years ago

It was great I did add my own ingredients but it came out great

Erin T. 5 years ago

I made the recipe exactly as it’s written and found it to be a bit bland but it definitely has potential to be really good. Next time I’ll try another reviewer’s suggestion of doubling the spices, which I think should do it.

Samantha Monroe 5 years ago

Love this next time I’m going to try with shredded chicken and simple tortilla chips nommy!

Pamela Weaver 5 years ago

Delicious. Doubled the seasoning. Added garlic and onion to turkey. And added garlic salt. Will definitely make again!

Christine Baray 6 years ago

I love this recipe! Added double flavoring sooooo good!

Brittany T. 6 years ago

Really yummy! You do have to add additional servings of spices because the ground turkey needs extra flavor. I also added frito chips at the very end to give it some substance since it doesn't keep ya full very long.

Keana A. 7 years ago

Yummly!! I've made it probably 6 times and my girlfriends in love. Definitely a favorite for us!!!! ❤️😝
