I made this for my first OAMC session and my daughter loved it. My son who hates most mexican dishes also loved it and said he'd eat it again. I sent it to work with my husband and he said it was good too. I don't particularly care for corn or mushrooms in anything but I thought it had an interesting flavor and wouldn't mind eating it again.
