The holidays are just around the corner, and the crowd is roaring. I love to make this at this time of the year. No fussing, and everyone is happy. But if you would love to have this before the special days, cut the recipes in half. Leftovers are great for Latin Breakfast Burritos - just add Jalapenos and black beans. Enjoy!
