I got this recipe out of the Fast & Easy Weight Watchers cookbook. It doesn't even taste like it's "lite" ANYTHING!! My whole family loves it and it's a request even when extended family comes for a visit.

Great recipe...thought it would be bland because it doesn't call for any sauces but it was excellent and spicy just the way I love it anybody can enjoy this and it definitely does not taste like the usual bland healthy recipe.Reply

This has become a staple in our house but it is extremely spicy. I love spicy food but this was spicy even though I used the tomatoes with chilies as another reviewer suggested. I believe it is the cajun seasoning that gives it the kick. Still amazing taste and we can't get enough of it even though our mouths are burning! ;)Reply

This was a really good, quick weeknight meal. I love spicy food, but this was fire-alarm HOT! I didn't even use the jalapeno diced tomatoes, but had the green chile and tomatoes instead. I wanted to make this as healthy as possible, so I subbed whole wheat rotini for the fettucini and used turkey polska kielbasa. I definitely got my water down today! :) Thanks Texaspollock.
