We're having it tonight too.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

DH just ate up the last bit of this - there was about 2 spoonfuls left after dinner last night (and only 3 of us were at home for dinner).  He said it was even better today, although clearly was not too bad last night either!

We loved it too. It is not our usual week night meal but was very nice. Will definitely make it again.

Quick &  easy, and little effort required  :)



I threw 1 garlic clove on running blades, before making the sauce, and used orecchiette pasta.

Yum Maddy :)

We had this tonight, added mushrooms to the TM.

Also added a layer of baby spinch to each serving bowl & tossed through :)

So quick, easy & tasty :)

This is a great recipe Hally.  I only wanted enough for 2 so, with the addition of a couple of ingredients, these are the quantities I used.   I didn't get a picture before but DH is a pretty slow eater so this is what's left of his after I had already finished mine and had dessert as well  :-))  I wouldn't have bothered with a picture but it does look different with what I added.

100g spiral pasta
85g mixed veg
2 tblspns grated parmesan in the recipe and another 2T for sprinkling on top
75g ham
1/2 tsp garlic paste
80g cream
35g roasted red capsicum

My pasta wasn't cooked enough for me at the end so I added it back to the TM bowl with the rest of the ingredients and cooked 2mins/100o/reverse/speed 1.  I let it sit for 2 minutes before serving.

The roasted red capsicum gave the dish a pinkish hue.  Delicious, quick meal - thanks Hally.

Yes JD, quick meal, cheaper & better than take out. Gad you liked it :)

I find Barilla cooks well in the thermo server, used another  brand & it didnt.
