This is nothing like my grandma's fideo but a delicious and nutritious alternative. I followed the recipe exactly except I added cumin ( 1/2 tsp) which I highly recommend and omitted the scallion based on personal preference.
Added some cracked red pepper for a little kick but otherwise followed the recipe as written and it was fantastic!
Tasty quick supper I really loved this dish all the vegetables make this very nutritious but it was also delicious. The toasted pasta combined with the veggies - I also used parmesan cheese - went together beautifully. The chopped scallion and lime brought all the flavours together as a perfect finishing touch. I will definitely be making this again!
Perfect way to add Mexican flavor to pasta Wow! What a delicious find! I added some pan sheared spicy shrimp (chili powder red pepper flakes and cumin) as a topper and it was a filling meal. The cheese and lime were nice complimentary flavors. I'm excited to try it with other vegetables! Pros: Easy one pot meal can add more of anything
Wow...it's good This turned out surprisingly well. I add squash to it to have more vegetables. It was really pretty easy but you need a large pan to cook it all in. The noodles have a really nice flavor from cooking them in the oil before hand. The lime cotija cheese and scallions add a PERFECT touch to the meal. I am really pleasantly surprise by this dish. I definitely recommend it!! Pros: Easy you can add whatever vegetables you want cooks in one pan dinner in a bowl!
Love it My partner and I love this. I used a 14.5 oz can of fire roasted tomatoes instead of 2 fresh tomatoes and Parmesan cheese instead of Asiago. My partner thought I ought to try adding cilantro next time. It's really nice to have a different way to use pasta and we love the sauteed flavor. Pros: Simple 1 pot meal
So yummy and simply I loved this dish hot and also at room temp. So it will make a good summer pasta salad too. I used whole wheat thin spaghetti and broke them into 2 " pieces but still they jumped all over my kitchen when I tried to saute them so next time I will break into 1" pieces and also crush them in a towel then saute. I like the nutyness of the whole wheat pasta. I also used canned pieces of baby corn instead of corn kernels because I opened the wrong can--loved them-cut even smaller than they were in the can. Lastly I used sugar snap peas also a very good choice. I am making this dish again this week. Pros: Love all the veggies but... Cons:...the pasta went jumping all over my kitchen when I tried to saute it
Quite tasty I'm not a huge fan of whole wheat pasta but this is an excellent use of the pasta. The toasting enhances the flavor. I used the cojita cheese which was perfect. I threw in a few pieces of leftover roasted chicken at the end but the dish doesn't need any meat. Pros: Super easy Cons: None
Easy & delicious! I made this for the first time and was very happy with the results. I didn't have whole wheat pasta so used regular. I also didn't have enough green beans to make 2 cups so I added some zucchini and yellow squash (from my garden). It was delicious! I didn't have the mexican cheese on hand so I used Romano. The scallions and lime juice added at the end really brought the dish together and made it special.
yummy for lunch I substituted asperagus for green beans and left out the cheese. This was really great on the first night but also heated really well for lunch for a few days! Pros: reheated great
