Really good. I added quite a bit of chili powder and more cumin. Next time will add more beans and maybe a can of stewed tomatoes for more thickness and additional flavor/filling. Good recipe!
0 HelpfulWas ok but became much better as leftovers. If I make it again I would add chili powder and decrease the amount of broth to make it thicker.
0 HelpfulI had serious doubts on this one. I can promise that I have NEVER had this many veggies in one meal. As I watched it cooked, I assured friends that we could order pizza if it sucked. But then we tasted it! It was amazing- everyone had second helpings and it was guilt free! My friends (and I) were impressed!
