This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think it could have done with less chorizo. The flavors were still good, but I would have liked it better with a more balance of flavors!

The instructions for this dish were a bit confusing. I ended up with a bowl of spaghetti squash and a bowl of chorizo and corn. I wish there were more detailed instructions on how to mix everything together!

This dish was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think it could have done with less oil. I would have liked it better if it were a bit healthier!

I thought this dish would be more flavorful, but it ended up being a bit bland. I think it needed more spices and herbs to really bring the flavors alive!

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have liked more of a focus on the chorizo and less on the sweet corn!
