Although the flavor was good, the title was deceiving in that it LACKED mushrooms, themselves. I added a pkg. of fresh mushrooms and replaced the water with beef broth. Also did not have the noodles called for, so I used egg noodles. Really good second day. Will serve again, but rated it low due to its lack of veggies.

This was good, I didn't have tomoates on hand, but used a large zucchini. Next time might add some fresh mushrooms as they are my favorite.

For a quick dinner this is a good recipe. It was flavorful and easily adaptable to put whatever you like in it.

This was really good; however, I did have a problem cooking through at the end so next time I will simply cook the pasta while I am cooking the meat. Doesn't really satisfy the "one-dish" description, but better than waiting for the noodles to cook with a "starving" 9-year old nagging for dinner! :-) The only change I made was to replace the zucchini with 8 oz. fresh sliced baby bella mushrooms.

A very pleasing weeknight supper. I used Penne because I had it on hand and also spicy Rotel tomatoes. I added Parmesan at the end, and I think that really improved the taste.

Just a point about the comment on not adding tomatoes...drain them first and get rid of the overtly tomato flavor/acid...that is true for just about all pasta dishes if you do not use fresh tomatoes. I also agree that fresh mushrooms add a subtle zesty quality.

Was o.k, but I did not have zucchini- but I did use fresh mushrooms. I tasted it BEFORE I added the diced tomatoes and it was fine, but when I added the tomatoes it was not. so next time I will not add the canned tomatoes.
