  1. this was the first time we tried this dish. we liked it but it was a lot better when served with more chips, and some sour cream on top, otherwise it tasted too much like eating straight salsa and ground beef. i think a salad of lettuce and tomato would have made it complete!
    also, i only used 1/2 a pound of ground beef, which i had previously browned and then put in the freezer. saved time and really, who needs to eat a whole pound of ground beef in one dinner between two people?
