My DH made this with a few minor subs it's what was on hand. He used left over chicken (we made a beer can chicken) i had the kind of diced tomatoes with green chili's so that's what he used so when everything was mixing it looked a touch dry so he added about 1/4 cup of chicken stock he added some sliced hot peppers to the corn mix. It was very tastey, and easy for my DH to make he only had to call me 2 x's, LOL. Will make again. Thanks for the post.
