This was perfect for a quick and simple weeknight meal. It was a new dish for us; we hadn't had anything like this before, but were very pleased with the result. I used whole wheat linguine instead of spaghetti, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. The cumin flavor is strong, and the sour cream tones it down a bit. This was a great choice for PAC Fall 2009.
