I really love this recipe, but it needs a little more flavor for my taste. Usually I use a lot more ground pepper and double the sauce (also add plain yogurt). I have not yet got adding other spices down to a science , but when I get it right this is a 5 star recipe.

I modified this quite a bit incorporating suggestions of other reviewers. Can make even when out of season. --2 advocado --Substituted 2 medium cans of diced tomatoes and 1 medium can of diced tomatoes (Well drained). Omitted chilis, green onions, hot sauce, and roma tomatoes. (First made it during the winter when good tomatoes were hard to find, and like both the ease and taste.) --Zest and juice of one lime --Large bunch of cilantro (chopped) --1 tablespoon of store bought minced garlic (the fresh garlic was a little raw tasting) --1 can drained corn --2 cans black beans rinsed and drained --1/4 cup Red Wine Vinegar --1/4 olive oil --salt and pepper to taste. Made a great side that goes with so many things. chips, crackers, side.

Great Recipe. Hubby says this is his all time favorite crock pot recipe. . . and we make a LOT of crock pot recipes. Smells great and tastes even better.

Good way to use up leftover turkey. I used leftover fried turkey, container of fresh mushrooms (YUM), and added green peas and colored bell peppers that I had in the freezer for extra color & taste. I also added about 1 1/2 tablespoons curry powder and pepper to taste. Did not even taste like leftover Turkey! Keeper

Added 1/2 cup terkayki, and a bit of fresh chopped rosemary and thyme. Used can of whole cranberries instead. Also used cheaper pork roast with bone and removed bone just before serving. Guest raved about the taste. Keeper
