    Oh my gosh this is good! Perfect summer meal that doesn't heat up the kitchen for long, great use of summer corn and tomatos. Didn't have cilantro or jalapenos, so in stead of peppers and salt, sub'd Emeril's Essense and additional cayenne. Served with salsa and light sour cream, DH and 6 yr old picky eater loved it. I always look for reviews by kittencal!
