Note: I'm guessing on the amount of Poultry and Mexican Blend because I just add a little at a time until it tastes the way I want. In the past, I have also substituted portions of the sugar out for Xylitol and/or Stevia with good results.

Note: This recipe could probably serve 8 people as their main meal if you add chicken. Its a very large recipe.
