Very good! A little spicy but would make again. I also used mozzarella instead of the four cheese.

This was okay...but not great. I should have known. Good way to use up green salsa and pepperjack cheese I had from another recipe. The amount of corn made it sweet and good, but adding one starch to another doesn't make it healthy. :) I'd prefer other veggies with my pasta. Don't think I'll make this again.

Daughter's favorite supper - and she's picky! Entire family loves this meal. I make it often. I like the sweetness of white/yellow blend corn. I use a very mild green tomatillo salsa. Can be made/mixed the night before - just reheat and it's on the table before your starving soccer players even sit down! To save time, I ovenbake a bunch of plain frozen chicken breasts on Sunday to use variously all week so I just add how much chicken I want to the entire box of 16 oz. pasta, which feeds all 5 of us Monday night - yields yummy leftovers for Tuesday lunch!
