    You forgot to say when to add the tomato.I added it after I cooked the corn mixture for about 5 minutes then I cooked it about 5 more minutes or so . I also added a little cajun seasoning because i like it spicy It is a great recipe:) - 9/11/10

    This recipe was great....everything about it....and very filling. I would say that if you are making for kids you might want to hold off on the jalepenos (although I loved them) - 3/10/11
