Well, to be honest, I was not expecting much but everyone in my family loved it. I followed recipe but used 1/2 can tomato past and then full can of MILD rotel...came out awesome! After putting it all together I then threw in crockpot on low for the day...

I used a can of Rotel tomatoes with chilies instead of the tomato paste for more zip..and it had plenty of zip! For those that like less spicy then the plain tomatoes will work just fine. I wanted a side dish to go with meat I already had/didn't want the beef in it so I just left the beef out and used beef broth instead of water. Made 3/4 c of rice (1.5 c when cooked) to serve it over. 3 of us got 2 meals from it....so the rating for 6 servings is accurate.

delicious - however a little runny... I suggest draining the beans before. Great and quick!

Delicious! I used all my leftovers from taco night (ground beef, corn, and black beans) to make this -- a great way to turn the same ingredients into a different meal! Not leftover-y at all. Like other reviewers, I also used a can of diced tomatoes (the kind with onion and garlic) instead of the tomato paste. Added some spices and it turned out great! I also served it over rice.

Very Yummy! I found this just by typing ingredients that I had on hand. I used tomato sauce instead of paste. I also added a can of Rotel Diced tomatoes and used mexican corn instead of plain corn. Will definatelymake this again!

I made this in a skillet minus the tomato paste and made burritos with it. It was great just like that too!

This soup was wonderful! I used a bag of dry black beans because I had them on hand and no canned ones to use. The family loved this simple and delicious recipe!

As the author states. A mild stew. Which it was. It was a nice throw-together. I think it needs a little bit more of a kick. But was quite nice. Possibly a 1/2 cup of salsa. But family liked it. I'll add so spices to it the next go around. But this is totally kid friendly the way it is. Thanks
