Spanish Pasta Salad-My Version

I found a recipe for a Spanish pasta salad in one of my cookbooks awhile back. I wanted to make a pasta salad that had some different flavors, but I had to alter it to suit my picky palate and what was in my cupboards. This is what I came up with.

12 oz. Tri-color rotini pasta, cooked & drained
15 oz. Chili beans with juice
15 oz. corn, drained
15 oz. stewed tomatoes, chopped
1/2 pkg. taco seasoning
1/2 c. mozzarella, shredded
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. cayenne pepper

1. In a medium bowl, mix beans, corn, tomatoes, taco seasoning, garlic powder and pepper together.
2. In a large bowl, combine bean mixture with cooked pasta. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.

4-6 servings
