    Great recipe! The flavors of the tomatoes and seasonings really came through. Added another can of red kidney beans for extra protein.

    This was a great one pot meal. I added ground beef and it was really delicious I just had to make sure to increase the amount of seasonings to account for the meat being added. It was great for meal prep it has been good throughout the week
