Tip

Chopping Onions

I’ve found that the best way to chop onions with no tears is to place the cutting board on top of the stove and turn the vent fan on high. —Gloria D., Courtenay, British Columbia

I LOVE this recipe. I've made it several times now and with different types of meat: diced chicken, ground turkey, and ground beef. It's delicious with all of them. The one thing I do a little differently than the recipe is that I put just a spoonful of the sauce inside each tortilla - I think it's awesome that way! My family and several friends ALL love it! I'll make this again and again! Thank you!

These were really delicious; I used ground turkey instead of beef. I used corn tortillas and they became almost tamale-like. Will definitely be making these again!

I actually would give this 5 stars, not sure how it shows 4? Anyway this is one of my alltime favorite dishes. I have made it for years. I top it w/ shredded lettuce, black olives, sourcream and guac. YUMMY
