5 stars. I couldn't add them!

Very good. I like the versatility of adding whatever you have at home. Instead of corn I added chopped mushrooms and a sweet potato. Then finely chopped a cup of kale for their nutritional benefit and stirred it in while simmering. Perfect! Really does only make 4-5 servings. So you may want to double if you want to freeze for later.

Added fresh corn and 2 jalapeños, kicked it up a notch. Great, easy recipe.

This is a staple for me, I meal prep it every week! I add green beans or broccoli and corn.

There is corn in the picture, but not in the recipe, so I added 1/2 cup last time I made it. Makes a difference.

No, over 2-1/2 cups for 4 servings. I get way more than 4 servings. Usually around 10, which is about 1 cup serving.
