Review:
I used refried beans instead of pinto. I didn’t add them into the slow cooker but just warmed them and put them on as a topping. I thought this was a very tasty dish. It isn’t something I would typically make for dinner but it was a fun change and my family enjoyed it. I give this recipe 4 stars.)
Glad you liked it anonymous!
Made this last night and it was excellent! Will be in my dinner recipes from now on
This is really good. We liked it alot. You can also put the meat on tacos. I had it for leftovers 3 days in a row.
