Easy & Simple
This was extremely easy to make. My husband & 3yr old loved it. My daughter kept asking for more until we finally had to cut her off. I will add more corn next time. If you don't like corn- it's not overwhelming. If you enjoy corn- add more. There are 3 of us w/large appetites & we had plenty of leftovers. I would also suggest using a larger skillet. Mine was on the verge of an over-flow. We will defenitly make this again. Enjoy :)

VERY GOOD and EASY!
Instead of tomato sauce I pureed a can of Rotel and I also used the Mexicorn can of corn. The Rotel spiced it up nicely. My husband (who is extremely picky) loved it! I also used penne pasta instead of elbow because it was all I had. Will make again.

Mexican Pasta Skillet
GREAT RECIPE - Wonderful basic recipe you can adjust to your taste!
I like to use ground turkey instead of beef and use GreenGiant Mexicorn (it has red and green bell peppers) instead of frozen Niblets and I add chopped green onion as well. I serve medium salsa for those who prefer it a little more spicy and cheese/sour cream on the side to omit some calories! Delicious!!!

Yummy!
I made this tonight for the first time and my hubby and I both loved it. We also added a can of black beans in and used medium salsa to give an extra bit of flavor. Next time we both agreed a side of corn bread would go well with this meal. Great, healthy, and EASY recipe!

My family loved this! I added a can of black beans (drained and rinsed) and some fresh cilantro then garnished with fat free sour cream and more cilantro. We will definitely make this again.

Good Stuff!
We have made this with hamburger meat and then with ground turkey, and we agree that it tastes better with the hamburger! It is a flavorful and satisfying meal!

One of my favorites
Love this dish! So quick and easy, and I love that the pasta cooks in the skillet instead of a separate pot. I make it with medium salsa to add a little more heat.

Great!
This was easy and had a lot of flavor. We used homemade salsa, and I added just a little more tomato sauce. Very good, even for little ones!

Very tasty
My family loved this, but I did make several changes. I used ground chicken and seasoned it while it cooked with a dry packet of taco seasoning. I also used brown rice pasta! We just sprinkled a little cheese over each serving rather than the whole dish, then each person could monitor there portion.

Surprisingly good
I thought this dish might just be for the kids, but I quite enjoyed it. I replaced the beef with turkey and you couldn’t tell the difference. I also used the multigrain pasta (my new favorite). If you don’t have much time to work over the stove top this is a quick and easy recipe.

Great recipe
Kinda like a mexican hamburger helper. Try adding some refried beans if you want some more kick and to thicken.

My new favorite!
This was great! I used 10oz of extra lean ground turkey instead of the beef and fat free cheese, and I even added 8 oz of sliced black olives. It took off 90 calories!! This was very easy to make.

wonderful flavor!
This recipe was definitely a hit in my family! I used 1 lb of ground turkey that had taco seasoning in it, which gave it that extra kick. I also added a little extra corn because my brother and I love it. We forgot to put the cheese on top but I don't even think it needed it! It's even healthier without it! :)

Delicious!
I made this for my family for dinner one night, and it was a hit! My husband, our 5 year old, and even our 2 year old loved it. It smelled great as it was cooking, and it tasted even better.
I made no changes to the recipe. My husband and 5 year old did add extra shredded cheese to their own plates, but even without the extra it was great.
Good comfort food, not hard to make, and basic ingredients. We will definitely have this again.

Healthified Mexican Pasta Skillet
My whole family loved this recipe! I never have left overs when I make it! The only thing I do differently is put in a can of rinsed black beans to add some fiber and ground turkeybreast instead of beef. I always use whole grain pasta. Its super yummy!

Mexican Skillet
This was delicious. Kindof like goolash but better with the crunch of the corn. I used canned sweet corn because its cheaper. This is definately going to be a regular dinner at my house!

Very tastey
This was a delicious recipe that even my kids loved, even though the salsa I added was a bit spicy. I used ground turkey and added fresh cilantro at the end with the cheese that gave it a nice added flavor. Very Good!

I just cooked this tonight. The dish was very tasty but, in my opinion, needed more sauce. The recipe calls for 1 cup of tomato sauce ( i used the whole can) and 1 jar of salsa. Also, instead of putting the cheese in the skillet, put all of the pasta in a baking dish, top it with cheese, and put it in the oven for a little bit. Overall, this dish was very tasty and healthy but my only concern was the need for more sauce.

So tasty
This recipe was great! i was very surprised as many low fat versions always seem to be missing something. I added some jalapenos and chili powder to spice it up a bit...served with baked chips and a tablespoon of low fat sour cream! It was great! My husband even liked it!

This was amazing...my family LOVED it. I'd recommend adding some crushed tortilla chips before the cheese to give it some crunch. I love the black bean idea in sub for the meat--will try that next time.

not bad
Added taco seasoning to meat and used reduced-fat Mexican blend cheese instead of plain cheddar. Boyfriend LOVED it. Portions were HUGE. Definitely a hearty meal-- totally couldn't tell it had been "healthified".

WOW!!!!
Having been a vegetarian for 30+ years I substituted TVP (texturized vegetable protein) for the ground beef (1 cup dry reconstituted w/1 cup hot water)in the skillet then proceeded w/recipe instructions. It was easy to prepare and excellent. Hot pepper seeds were added by my husband for a spicier taste. He gave it a thumbs up so it will become a favorite in this house:-)

So Good!
I had a pound of ground turkey that I didn't know what to do with. I logged in to this website & there was the recipe. It is absolutely wonderful!!! I didn't have any tomato sauce so I used a can of tomato soup & it tasted great. We will definately make this one again.

This is an amazing recipe - so very easy and amazingly delicious!!! It makes a huge amount and is very reasonable in cost. The best part is that my tiny 12 year old daughter had five servings and my 18 year old son had four, then ate the leftovers for a bedtime snack! This has NEVER happened to me before with any recipe. My husband and I loved it, too!! Keep these recipes coming!!!
