    A friend made this and it's good, I only gave it 3 stars because to me it is not as healthy as it could be. There is no need for Unhealthy sour cream, and corn is Full of Sugar and most of us know corn in the US is full of GMO's. Leave out the corn and sour cream and you have something tasty and good. ;
