  Good but used spinach instead of greens (who eats these?), used a bit more pesto and added some half-fat creme fraiche to thicken it up.

  This is one of our favourites and has been used a number of times for casual suppers with friends. Some say that its a little veg heavy - but I disagree. Its like summer comfort food, lighter than a normal stew but still warming and packs in plenty of flavour.

  Brilliantly easy and lovely. Added carrots, leeks and courgettes....also had rice with sweetcorn as a side (despite the potatoes this went well) Will definitely cook it again. It sits lightly on your stomach ...

  Mmmmm. This is such an easy recipe to follow but very tasty. I took some of the leftovers into work for lunch and everybody was saying it smelled delicious.

  This is a simple but tasty dish-I also substituted spinach for the greens. A bonus is that it's suitable to puree down for babies which has saved me from cooking something separate for my 7 month old!

  Very tasty. Hearty but light. The pesto really helps to enchance the flavours. We also changed the spring greens for spinach. We will be cooking this again.

  I left out the pesto and it was very delicious, suprisingly as there are no herbs in it, which it doesnt even need. It also looked great and i can definitely make this for my room mates next year. I havent tryed thhis idea yet but i think some bacon it it too would be a good addition. Definitely will be making this again.

  A good healthy meal. Rather too many spring greens and could have done with a little more cooking than suggested at the end but nutritious and a change from my usual style of cooking.

  I was a little startled by the huge mass of spring greens that was required, but this did occupy a lot less space when it was cooked. Easy to make. Tasted lovely. Would definitly do it again.
