Easy and fast to prepare. The whole family loves this recipe served with shredded cheese and sour cream. In the summer we add julienned zucchini.

This recipe is our favorite! It's so quick and easy and has great flavor! My husband and I add reduced fat sour cream and a little sprinkle of cheddar that makes it that much yummier!
