@Chi-town girl I'm wiping drool off of my keyboard! Except I'd have to omit cilantro as I can't stand it but the rest is just yummy.

@Love my grandkids - looks good, doesn't it!?! Easy recipe and we have an abundance of cherry tomatoes. Omitting the cilantro won't change the outcome. Just need a salad and maybe some garlic bread to make it a complete meal

Made this for dinner last night and it was every bit as delicious as it sounds! However, when I added the pasta and stirred everything together, the melted queso fresco clumped up. I'm thinking it was the brand I used. Can anyone recommend a smooth, "melty" queso fresco? TIA!!!
Even with the clumps of cheese, the flavors of this dish were to die for!!!

@joviolin - I'm glad you love it. I am curious to know if there are more "melt" queso frescos. Hoping someone can answer the question

Queso fresco is not an easy cheese to melt. You can melt it like you would make a bechamel sauce w/out the butter and flour. I made this same Tik Tok viral dish with a block of cream cheese. I incorporated feta crumbles into my dish at the end when tossing in the cooked pasta-- you could do the same with the queso fresco.
