  Easy to make, and delicious! Went down well with the meat-eaters for a change... would make again, it's a crowd-pleaser served with salad.

  Delicious! I used half and half broccoli and cauliflower, and even my meatloving father loved this!

  This was delicious, I threw in a few roasted vegetables left over from the day before as well!I was really surprised that it tasted as good as it did and I baked it in the oven for twenty minutes rather than grilling, I liked the fact that the sauce was not thick and gloopy...I was worried it was going to be too thin and watery, but it came out perfect.

  My Daughter turned Her nose up when I was making this, but finished it all off!. I thought it was very nice. I'm not a veggie but do enjoy veggie recipes.

  Lovely recipe, I added mushrooms to it. I also baked it for 20 mins for an extra crispy taste. I used Cheddar as well and it was fine. I may change the pasta shapes, they were a little large for my 2 young kids to eat easily. Would make again, it's so easy and quick to prepare.

  Great! I used brown pasta which is also good - healthier too! Veg was cooked to perfection - not too hard, not too soft!

  Not bad! Although, next time I will use extra mature cheddar and english mustard to give it more of a kick.
