Really easy & yummy but too hot for my preschooler. Would definitely make it again but go easy on the chipotle pepers!

Horrible, I threw out all of it. "Barbecue" flavoured pasta is not appealing. I even used less chipotle peppers than it called for and it was still way to spicy. Would not recommend this to anyone.
