  Upped the amount of cream cheese and used half fat creme fraiche (instead of single cream) which i also upped on quantity. As warned the sauce was absorbed far more than I expected and it ended up a bit stodgy (delicious comfort food). I tried to make it fresh and served immediately. Will definately make again (was very popular) but will experiment with ingredients and cooking method to avoid the high absorption rate.

  Easy to do this is a firm favourite, although better if eaten immediately. I find it does not re-heat well if one of the family is having tea late.

  YUMMY - this is easy to make and very yummy. I used low fat boursin, & low fat Elmlea single cream - aswell as lean diced chicken. I did not use the nuts ontop, instead I crushed tortilla chips with a little bit of grated cheese.

  Having read all the comments about this going a bit dry, I decided to make it as a basic pasta dish - not a bake. Added the spring onions to the sauce and missed out the almonds, just topped it with parmesan. Fab!

  I looooveee this receipe! Ive been making for many years after seeing it a Good food Mag. I find that the amount of pasta is too much, the sauce doesnt coat it and its too dry. Plus I only cook for about 15 mins, again to save drying out. The best sun dried tom paste is Sainsbury's I find. I also left out the almonds. Don't use any other sort of mushroom, it just doesnt taste right! Everyone I make it for loves it!

  My 18 month old and my 7 yr old (who is a fussy eater) both really enjoyed it! Toddlers need full fat...so gloing light is not an option! Lovely to cook one meal that can be enjoyed by everyone, and so easy and quick to make too. Wasnt sure on freezing it, as it contains cream...is it safe to re-heat? Be good if this an option as we have lots left over.

  Saw this in the Best 80 dishes book and made it for the first time tonight. Everyone loved it and we will definitely be having it again. Used breadcrumbs instead of almonds (nut allergy). Sauce did dry up (although it was still delicious) - will try doubling the sauce quantity next time.
