I thought this was really good, my husband said it was "ok", and my kids didn't really like it. It was very easy to make. I used ground turkey instead of beef. I didn't think the flavors would mix...I was wrong, it was very good. A little sweet.

Just about everything is processed, canned and high in salt and cholesterol. I made it for our tasters table and it was roundly and soundly condemned as a viable meal for adults or children. There is no problem making fresh ingredients. Canned and salty foods are just not acceptable today when we all know how unhealty it is and how it can lead to heart disease and strok.
