Very bland! I didn't enjoy this recipe because I felt like I had to add a cup of salt for season. My meat eating roommate did not enjoy it either and I could not disagree this time.

I really wanted to like this--it's simple, easy and vegetarian, but unfortunately it came out watery and bland. It's a good thing I was tasting as I was cooking, because had I put this out as written, I think it would have barely been touched. I kept adding things--chili powder, paprika, oregano, cream cheese, and eventually a splash of red wine vinegar but it took a LOT of extra work to make this one edible. Our family is very into savory foods, but this just didn't do it for us. Sorry!

I love this! Sometimes I add in some sauteed slices of sausage.

I really liked this pasta combination. I thought it sounded different, which was what I was hunting for. It wasn't the prettiest dish. I used chicken broth and sprinkled extra cayenne on each serving along with the parmesan. Wow! A great blend of flavors!

I was sceptical but it turned out OK. Had some black beans and broccoli I wanted to use and since I don't eat spinach I would have substituted it with bok choy if I had any. Forewent vegetable for chicken stock and cayenne for chilli pepper.

This was pretty good, and very healthy-tasting. We tend to prefer saucy pasta, and there isn't much of a sauce to this. The flavors didn't seem to blend well, though it wasn't unpleasant, and it was a very quick meal.

Everyone really liked this including my 6 yr old who had 2nd's. I made exactly as written except I used fresh broccoli florets instead of frozen chopped. I will make this again! thanks!

This was tasty; I will make this again. Next time, I will saute the onion and garlic in a little olive oil; also, a bit too much liquid - I added a small amount of Miso to thicken.

I read all 33 reviews before making this dish and decided to make as directed first. I cooked the broth and vegetables in a large skillet and the broth cooked way down while the veggies were cooking so mine was not soupy at all. It had just enough broth to keep the pasta moist after I mixed the pasta into the dish at the end. I added enough red pepper flakes to make it mellow and not hot. I too felt it needed more seasoning beyond salt and pepper, but I didn't want to go the southwestern flavor route. I waited until the whole wheat pasta was cooked, then tried a taste test with a spoonful seasoned with basil. Next, a spoonful with oregano. I ended up adding dried basil and dried oregano to taste (a generous half-teaspoon each) and it tasted very good with the cheese sprinkled on. This is a very good week night dish. I liked it and my husband did also but commented that he would like maybe some Italian sausage on the side! I will make this again.

This was pretty good for a hurry-up, vegetarian meal, but I think it could have used a bit more flavoring. I had no stock on hand so I used a can of tomatoes in puree, extra garlic and oregano. It was very soupy, so I also added a tbsp. of tomato paste. Next time I think I'd add some cumin and chili powder and top with some cheddar cheese instead of the parmesan. I felt this dish was trying to decide whether to go Italian or Mexican/Southwest, and either way it would need a little more seasonings. But it was still good and filling.
