Do you ever make something for dinner and before you have time to turn around, it’s almost all gone? Yeah? Me too!!! Like this! Crazy how fast this disappeared. I had a couple, IT Guy had a few and #1 Son and his wife each had a some.....POOF! Gone! We did have a little of the salsa left over which I promptly finished off with some tortilla chips. But seriously. Guys. So good! I know the pictures make it look like there’s a lot of ingredients...but really it’s bad. Things thrown together here and there and you’re done. Make this. Make it soon!
