I made this for our Memorial day BBQ, and it was a hit! I agree that the two TABLESPOONS of Chili powder is a little overpowering, but this is one of those recipes that gets better the longer it sits. I recommend making it a day ahead and letting it sit in the fridge overnight. I substituted fresh parsley for the cilantro, since it tends to taste soapy to me, but it was still delicious!

We wanted to try something different for our barbecue, and the steak we made had cumin in the rub, so I thought this would go well - and it sure did go! I was also a bit confused about the amount of pasta, but I don't usually measure things anyway, so I figured I'd just add more oil if I needed to. I also didn't rinse the can of beans - I like the sauce, and it added some moisture to the pasta salad too. We didn't have cilantro, so I can't wait to try it again with it. My husband ate it ALL - no leftovers at all!

This is a great pasta salad. I doubled the recipe because I wanted to use a whole box of Rotini and we were having it as a main course. I was a little nervous about the large amount of chile powder so I used 3TBLS. instead of 4. and it was still really good. I even think you could add chicken to it to make it a filling main course. I will be making this again!

My family (even 1 yr.old) loved this recipe. Like others, I did reduce the chili powder to 1 Tablespoon. If too dry, add 1/3 to 1/2 cup of Italian dressing & it moistens right up! Yummy.

I made this recipe for out of town guests. I feel like it was supposed to have a kick to it or just more flavor. I was a little disappointed. I think next time i may try a taco seasoning pkg. I really liked the black beans and other vegies that were in the recipe. The seasoning is the only thing i would change.

I liked it. Used a bag of frozen southwestern corn/black bean/pepper mix from the store and it worked great and took some of the prep work out of it.

This is a great pasta salad recipe. The only things I changed were to add a little more lime juice and some chopped scallions. I took it to a cookout and everyone loved it. I have also made it and served sliced avocado and grilled chicken on top for a complete meal with an extra squeeze of lime. So good!

Like another reviewer I thought this salad was a little dry but very good tasting. I made it for a pot luck at church. I did have to add more salt later and when I got home from the pot luck I threw about a half cup of salsa in the remaining salad. It made a noticeable improvement to the dryness of the salad without taking away from the healthiness. I had also used a high fiber pasta and maybe it soaked up more of the moisture? Anyway I had some yesterday for lunch and this time I threw in a handful of shredded cheddar to the mix. YUMMY! Overall a great recipe. Next time I make it, I'll use lime flavored olive oil in the dressing in place of canola oil.

Was excellent, even the one of us who doesn't like pasta salad said that it was ok. Would have been better if I remembered to put in the tomatoe(I hate them and still think it would be better to have them in it).

I thought the instruction to add the dressing and then let it cool was a little odd - I've never done that before. But I followed that instruction and it seemed to keep the pasta moist and put the flavor in the pasta rather than just any old where it lands. Also made it a bit of an odd color so it certainly looked a bit different. In the end, I thought was OK but nothing terribly exciting. Not a bad way to use up some ingredients.

I'm not a pasta salad person so when asked to bring one to a family dinner I came right to allrecipes for one. I tried this one and wow...it is great! Tastes the best if allowed to set for a day before serving...so I will make a day ahead from now on and extra lime juice is GOOD. Also I keep the tomatoes seperate till serving. The second day with the left overs (not much) I added fresh diced japaleno(seeds and pith removed) and diced pepperjack cheese and was wonderful! I can't thank you enough for this recipe...I now keep all the ingredients on hand...and was called the next day and asked for the recipe.

I used 16oz. rotini, 1/4c. oil, juice from one lime, 3tbsp. chili powder, 3tsp. cumin, 1tsp. salt(and salted noodles while cooking), 1tsp. minced garlic, one can chick peas, 1 can diced tomatoes, and about 1 1/2c. cilantro all because this is what I had on hand and a corn allergy. I think it tastes wonderful and I can't wait to have it tomorrow after everything marinates!
