Absolutely delicious. My local supermarket only bags of watercress, spinach and rocket so I used that. After reading the comments other people had made about lemon I just added the juice and zest of half a lemon which seemed to give the dish a subtle flavour of lemon rather than an overpowering one. It goes well with a salad, including olives and pine nuts, and a red wine such as a shiraz. Anyway enjoyed it that much that I'm going to try it out on the mother-in-law this coming Sunday!

I really enjoyed this recipe! I have just had it for my dinner and have enough left for lunch tomorrow. I did halve the amount of pasta used and also added some cheery tomatoes for a little bit of sweetness. I didn't have a lemon but had plenty of lemon juice due to pancake day so I used 2 tablespoons and didn't find it at all overpowering.
