  • 1 teaspoon sweet smoked paprika

  • Add bell pepper, chili, paprika, cumin and Italian spices then mix. Cook for 1 minutes, stirring.
  • Add corn, beans, tomatoes and macaroni then season with salt and pepper. Stir and continue cooking for about 5 to 6 minutes, until the pasta is cooked and the liquid is almost evaporated. Remove from heat.
  • Add the gouda cheese, the fresh parsley and toss. Let stand for 5 minutes.
