  2. It looks wonderful. I might try this, I have seen recipes before and been reluctant to try it. I dont know why because I love taco's and enchilada's and so on. I should try it at least once I don't want to miss out and it does look sooooo good

  4. Stopping in from Pantry Party. Great soup! Loving the sour cream on top--that hot/cold contrast thing! I'm really trying to use my crock pot more often. Thanks for sharing.
