Delicious -- I also think this recipe is a very adaptable recipe using whatever pasta, cheese and veggies are on hand. I used elbow macaroni, frozen corn, parmesan and other cheese that was in the fridge. By changing the ingredients slightly there is a whole different taste to this casserole which by the way went over very well at our house. And it also makes a lot which also goes over well. Thanks for sharing!

Truly delicious. We enjoyed this pasta dish very much. Nice flavor and a lovely texture, the sauce coated the pasta beautifully. Served with baked chicken and candied cherry tomatoes for a truly wonderful meal. I was out of peas so I substituted with corn niblets, they were great in the dish. Thanks for sharing. Made FYC tag game.
