This is an excellent salsa recipe. I have made it several different ways, and it is honestly hard to mess up. Our favorite version uses A. fresh, summer tomatoes from the garden, but if those are not available, I use Mexican seasoned canned tomatoes-name brand only. B. I also add about 1/2 cup of green onions for a fresher taste, and C. 1/4-1/2 cup of canned jalapenos, or two fresh ones-for a little kick. D. Then I add about 1 tsp of cumin and E. 1 tsp of sugar. We like ours a little chunky so I only pulse in the food processor for about 5 seconds. Absolutely perfect Texas salsa. Thank you, Denise, for sharing with all of us!!

Excellent basic chili recipe! I have made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. I made it for a Superbowl party earlier this year, and the pan was nearly licked clean. Thank you, George, for sharing!!

This was a very good dish, although, like many have said, it was rather dry. If I were rating this dish the first time that I made it-following the recipe exactly, I would have given it two stars, but I wanted to give it a chance since so many people liked it. The second time I made some changes so the 5-star rating is based on making it with my changes. I sauteed my onions in butter and fresh garlic and I added a cup of milk to the sauce before adding it to the noodles. I also really loved the potato chips on the top.
