We thoroughly enjoyed this meal! We’ve been looking for meatless meals for lent and this truly didn’t disappoint. I did add more pasta because I felt like what it called for was not going to absorb all of the liquid (and I am very thankful I did). We also cooked with whole wheat pasta to try and put a “healthier” substitute for regular pasta.
This recipe is quick, inexpensive, tasty, and can be made from pantry staples. It's in my personal recipe hall of fame! It is great over a baked potato or tortilla chips with the sour cream accompaniment. To lower the carb count, I use whole-wheat macaroni, and to lower the sodium, I use low-sodium tomatoes, sauce, and chili powder.
This is delicious! It smelled so good that we completely forgot about the sour cream! My husband doesn't like spicy food and this has just enough bite for the flavor to linger but does not sting.I used all "no salt added" ingredients and then added the tsp of salt it called for. That was perfect -- not too salty, not lacking salt, and it won't make me gain 3 pounds overnight! We will definitely be making this again and again!

Definately add the sour cream. That's what helps make this meal delicious. The whole family loved it and no leftovers!
This recipe was okay, but nothing special. It was lacking flavor and I added a healthy dose of sriracha to amp up the heat level.
If you are looking for a really good vegetarian recipe that will please everyone, this is the recipe to make!!!
This is a great dish and easy to fix. I have made this several times now and everyone who trys it likes it. If you have a vegan in the family it is appreciated by them. Ed (77 year old cook)
