I had a hard time this week trying to pick out a cookbook recipe. Nothing was really jumping out at me. I saw this recipe in my Mexican Cooking cookbook and thought it sounded easy. It doesn't really strike me as Mexican food, but whatever, I figured I would try it. The original recipe called to use taco seasoning for the spices but I was using chili ready tomatoes that already had seasoning. Then I added garlic powder, cumin and chili powder. Phil really liked this dish, but I would say it is one of my least favorite that I have made so far. It is definitely a good quick recipe though. I made it in under 15 minutes which is always nice to have one of those up your sleeve when you are in a hurry.
