I mean...Mexican & Italian combined?!?! HOW COULD YOU GO WRONG? This dish was awesome. I was a bit weary at first about combining the flavors in traditional Mexican with noodles...but it was absolutely delicious!
My dish came out a bit more pink than it should have, but that's because I forgot the chili powder...I forgot something...what else is new?! Anyways, compliments to Table For Two for the recipe! I will definitely make this again!
