    Can you make it with tortilla chips or flour tortillas. For some reason the one someone brought to work I didn’t like the gummy corn taste?

    It was so easy and so good. I forgot to take a picture but it looks just like the picture on the recipe. We ate it two nights in a row and love with homemade refried beans
