The corn picadillo was easy to make and very flavorful. I especially liked the addition of the corn, which added a nice sweetness and crunch.

I found the corn picadillo to be a bit too sweet for my liking. I think it would be better with less corn or more savory ingredients.

The corn picadillo was a bit bland for my taste, but it was still a good dish. I think it would be better with some added spices.
