From Kraft Food & Family Spring 2010, pg 18

"Easy for me. Entire family enjoyed it and asked me to make it again soon. Another bonus is the minimal cost to make per serving. The pasta really stretches the meal. 4 of us at dinner, adults. We ate well and still had at least 2 lunch sized servings left over. Thank you for posting a family favorite" - OaxacaCookin

    Super easy to make and it's delicious. Instead of adding cream cheese I made it without and then added sour cream and some avocado to my plate of it. So good!

    Super easy to make and delicious. I got a mild salsa so with the chili powder it made it the perfect amount of spicy!
