***I got this from MrFood.com. This would make a good side dish. You could make it into a main dish by adding your choice of meat. I think the addition of browned ground beef or turkey with a taco seasoning packet added to it would be a good dinner. If you want to go even farther with this dish, you could add black olives, onions, and red or green peppers.
