Very good - will make again. We added a little chili powder to add some extra flavor. We also used frozen "southwestern corn" instead of canned and it tasted great.

Different and tasty pasta dish. Easy to prepare however the corn was very hard to find. My daughter says this recipe is "good but it did not knock my socks off".
