This is a very yummy and versatile dish! A good friend of mine passed it on to me. You can make it with shredded Chicken/Turkey instead of hamburger and can be eaten by itself in a bowl, served as a hot dip with tortilla chips, or placed in a soft taco and rolled up as a burrito! Feel free to add toppings such as Sour cream, guacamole and even hot sauce or jalapeños to spice things up! Enjoy! I know my family does! :)
