EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

There's no need to add oil to the water you boil for pasta. By using enough water (4 cups water for every 4 ounces of pasta), adding pasta slowly and stirring frequently, you can keep the pasta from sticking together without having to add fat.

I won't be serving this to my family again. The texture and the flavors were all wrong together. You can eat it (with help from some hot sauce, sour cream, and cheese) but it is not good. The noodles don't belong in a Tex-Mex dish.
