This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think next time I'll add some more chili powder and cumin.

I added some black beans and corn to my Tex-Mex Macaroni and Cheese, and it was delicious! I think next time I'll add some diced tomatoes, too.

The Tex-Mex Macaroni and Cheese was a little too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.
