Delicious!!! I modified it a tad...December 01, 2008By Deidre7
"This recipe was very on point, easy and delicious. I got my ingredients from Trader Joes, and unfortunately they didn't have canned diced tomatoes with juice! So I modified the recipe a tad and it came out perfect. I browned the turkey with chopped onions as instructed. I put the wet ingredients together in the crock pot while the meat was browning. Instead of the 2 cans of diced tomatoes with juice, I used an 8oz can of organic tomato sauce mixed with equal portion water. I then diced three large roma tomatoes along and put that in. I added the 1 can of beans, and 1 cup of my fave salsa (roasted garlic!). For the seasoning, I eyed it as usual and probably put a little too much but it was perfect. I also added cayenne pepper for some kick! Cooked it for about 2.5-3 hours. Yummy will def. do this again! Thank you!"
