Reviews
This was very good. Changes :Mexican cheese, black beans, tomatoes w gr. chilies-well drained, 1/4 heaping cup sour cream & green onions instead of cheddar, kidney, gr. chilies, & plain onions.
I prepared this recipe for a party for my daughter-in-law's college graduation party. She really loved it and so did her mother.
