I thought this recipe was just ok. I didn't like the corn combination in this dish. Thank you for sharing, but I won't be making this again.

This was good but nothing I would make on a regular basis. My children ate it but said that I didn't have to make it again. There is nothing wrong with this recipe- it just was not to my family's liking. I followed the recipe exactly.

We didn't care for this. I wanted to gve this a five..but it was not anything I would make again. The taste just wasn't there.

This was really good, we enjoyed it greatly. This is like a home-made Hamburger Helper, but better. I didn't have any tomatoes so I used tomatoe paste, i didn't have any corn. Oh and we used ground turkey instead of ground beef. (grocery shopping time) :-) But overall this waa really tastee! thanks.
