Easy and delicious!! I did add more sun-dried tomatoes than the recipe called for, since we love them. Would definitely make this again! The whole family loved it.

I found this recipe to be extremely tasty!!! I thought I would be missing the meat element but I wasn't!!! Extremely flavourful, and definately a keeper! Will make again!!!

I didn't stick exactly to the ingredients but it turned out great! Used fresh spinach and feta olive oil and parmesan along with some fresh veggies. Yum.

Overestimated the cooking time of the pasta with the tomatoes and the spinach so it turned a bit mushy but still very good. Can't wait to try it done "right" as it should be fabulous.

This was very easy to make & tasted delicious! It even tastes great after freezing and reheating. I will definitely make this again!

What a wonderful way to "spice" up plain old pasta & add veggies at the same time!

I made this recipe twice last week and both times it went over very well. The second time I used a lesser quality of sun dried tomatoes and it showed. I would use a higher quality product next time despite the cost.

This was an interesting twist on what seemed to taste like antipasto salad. Both me and my fiance enjoyed this recipe, but it seemed to be missing something. We can't seem to figure out what that is, but will make this again adding chicken or salami even.

This was enjoyed by our whole family! I too added chicken and it was a great meal. I tried it hot and cold (as leftovers), and preferred it hot but the cheese did melt in clumps. Next time I'll let the pasta cool a little before the cheese is added.

This was great, but it should be chilled for a little before eating....
