this was really good for something to throw together. I didn't have tomato sauce or beans but it still tasted great! I added extra corn and the liquid from the canned corn. I did have problems with the bisquits though. after 20 minutes I took the lid off and cooked for another 10 minutes and turned up the heat to medium low. they still weren't done so i put the lid on for almost 10 minutes. Next time i would cook it in a bigger pot maybe so they have enough room or i might only make half of what the recipe calls for. Still great!

I thought this recipe was different with the Bisquick up top, and I didn't have problem with the dough- making about 6 spoonfuls. I would recommend not using just straight salsa, too salty. Maybe add 50/50 mix of salsa and Rotel. Watch the sodium- Heart disease is a killer!

I agree with others about the dough not cooking right. I made the bisquits smaller and cooked them longer, but still too doughy. Instead we put them in a taco shell, very deicious.
