Made this for a party at my home and everyone loved it. I made it without the beef. It was the best item on the table and the platter was empty when dinner was served. Definitely making it again soon!

Made without beef and onions...the taco sauce adds a great taste, received lots of compliments. Used leftover bean/cheese/taco sauce mixture in a taco salad dip which added great flavor.
