Next time I would make it a little spicier by adding jalapeno peppers. But this recipie was still very good! I didn't add as much cheese, but it was still tasty.

With a little help from everybody, this dish came together really well. We did have to add some other spices because it was pretty bland because we had to add more chicken since we were feeding so many.

This was so quick and easy to make. I added a can of diced tomatoes and used canned corn. I also used regular penne pasta and mexican cheese. So flavorful and delish! Even my husband loved it and he hardly comments on dinner!!
