My sister made this for me one time when we visited her, and I loved it!! She got it from a magazine (I'm not for sure which one). Just to warn you, it is a little spicy. I made it one time for my family and added a little too much chipotle. My kids were literally crying because it was so hot!! Before I had tasted it I told them, "You better eat it because there is nothing else!!" Then I tasted it and felt bad that I had said that because it was pretty hot. So go easy on the chili powder and chipotles if your kids don't like spicy food. Enjoy!
