Reviews
This was a good "meatless Monday" meal for us. Since there are only 2 of us, I halved the recipe, which was very easy to do with these ingredients. As chickluvs2cook suggested, I added some broccoli. I cooked it in with the pasta for the last 3 minutes, to make it tender/crisp. We will be enjoying this one again.
This is a quick and delicious recipe that is perfect for a busy night when dinner needs to get on the table quick. I also add broccoli or asparagus to get a veggie in too.
This was good but not great. I cut the recipe in half, used Italian sausage tortellini, and added mozzarella cheese in place of the Parmesan. It’s a good repertoire dish, since almost all of the ingredients can be pulled from your pantry or freezer at a moment’s notice.
this recipe wasn't bad but I thought it was missing something. I added some italian dressing to it and that was exactly what the dish needed to livin things up for my family.
This is one of my favorites, I love anything artichoke and this hit the spot
Fresh looking and tasting, but a little bland. I put sliced Italian Sausage on it though, and that was excellent.
Yum! I added some thawed & drained spinach for an easy one dish meal!
Absolutely fabulous!! The only change I made was that I used a large can of crushed tomatoes instead of diced. I didn't have them on hand. I also used grated Parmesan instead of shredded. Will most definitely make again.
This was fantastic!
This recipe was GREAT! I also used grated Parmesan cheese and it tasted fine. Even my husband (who thinks any meal without meat can't be considered dinner) loved this! Thanks for a great Meatless Monday recipe!
