This was sooo good. The only 'issue' was not adding enough tomatoes on top..lol I think I can fix that problem next time. But this has now become one of our for sure every month dish to make!! Thanks Pillsbury great dish!

Just made this dinner and it was really good. I added 2 packets of the taco seasoning mix instead of one and I think it worked better but next time I'll only do 2 cups of water instead of 2 1/2 cups. Overall I will definitely make this again.

This was a hit. I did not have elbow noodles so I used egg noodles and it was awesome. Kids ask for thirds.

Made this for supper and it is a winner. I used two heaping tablespoons of Ortega Taco Seasoning Mix in a jar instead of the package seasoning mix. Since I didn't have Cheddar cheese, I used a 1/2 cup of shredded Pepper Jack cheese, and 1 cup of shredded Mexican cheese. Put a layer of lite sour cream over the whole dish, then topped it with a large, chopped home grown tomato. It was soooo good. And leftovers the next day were even better. Thanks Pillsbury.

My Family loved this recipe! After I read the reviews I decided to make it with two seasoning packets. I also added cilantro to the meat after it was cooked/drained before I added the seasoning packets. It was delish! This has become a 'staple' recipe in our house!
