This is a great recipe, with a funny name, easy to make and has a fun secret ingredient of a can of tomato soup.
The original recipe called for chicken to be shredded, but i like it meat free and substitute a can of pinto beans. I halved the main recipe and it makes a nice amount for 2 with leftovers.
You can mix up with different beans and peppers and spices. Let me know how you made it and what you thought!
