The best thing about this recipe was how easy it was. However, to make it tasty, and to make it serve two people a normal portion, I had to make a lot of changes.
I used less than half the pasta (200g total) and less than half the cheese (100g total). I used about a cup of frozen mixed veg., which I heated in the microwave while the pasta was cooking. I omitted the oil from the pasta cooking process as it is unecessary and would have added more fat to a recipe already bursting with fat.
I added about a quarter cup of milk because the mixture in the saucepan was too pasty. I seasoned with a herb-and- spice salt mix, and added pepper, but it still didn't have enough zip so I added a bit of parmesan cheese.
Even after reducing the amounts, I still ended up with about 2.5 servings, enough for me and my husband and our toddler. The end result after the changes was delicious comfort food.
