Hi there,
This recipe sounds awesome and definitely something my kids would enjoy. However, we don’t eat red meat due to my high cholesterol. Do you think this recipe would work with ground turkey? I know there’s cheese in this recipe too – which I love…so I think if I can reduce the cholesterol in one of the two higher cholesterol ingredients, this could work!
Thanks!
I must admit that i find it very frustrating when the term 1 can is used in the ingredients. As I don’t live in the United States some items(such as fire roasted tomatoes ) can be hard to find. For you is 1 can a 280z can or 14oz can. have noticed you have used this more than once in your recipes. I really appreciate what you do with your blogs but it is crucial to have the right quantity of all the ingredients. I look forward to trying the above recipe once I have the proper quantity of Fire Roasted tomatoes.
Sincerely,

Hi Mark. It’s a 14.5oz can of fire-roasted tomatoes, I apologize for the oversight and sorry to be the cause of your frustration. I hope you enjoy the recipe!
