I've been making this recipe for years because my family really likes it. It's great for busy days because you make it earlier in the day and let it cook.

I and my family love this, I added a medium onion,1/2 green & red pepper cut into the beef & cooked together, black beans & 1 jalepeno & 1 chili pepper for a little spice. And yes mine to burned some on the side but that is the best part with a little crunch added withot the burnt taste.

I have made this several times and my family LOVES it. I have tried it with chicken as well as beef - we love both. Also, we substitute black beans in place of the olives. :) YUMMY!

Very bland and mushy. My family did not like.

On a special diet and can't use milk so I used half and half. It did burn on the sides. Did anyone have this problem? If so what did you do? I think my slow cooker cooks fast also.

This is the second time that I've made this dish. To spice it up some, I used an envelope of taco seasoning instead of the chili seasoning.

My family loved this recipe. I used skim milk, 2% cheese and extra lean ground beef. This dinner is good for a busy night.

I would use more seasoning than the recipe calls for,and seasoned chopped tomatoes

This cooks up with the consistency of a dense Mexican cornbread. Very easy - next time I'll halve the corn and add beans and jalepenos. I'll definitely be making this one again!

This is, hands down, my wife's favorite recipe for things I cook. Every time I cook it she just raves about it! I spice it up a little by adding Tobasco sauce.
