My husband and I found this recipe VERY bland, however, my 5 yr old liked it. I think this would work better as a cold salad with shrimp skewers instead. Or with some hot peppers in it.

It's a bit dry since there's no sause, but the flavour is good. I did add some hot pepper flakes to give this dish some kick.

This is an amazing recipe. I also added bean sprouts, celery, onion, and mushrooms. I also substituted rice for the pasta. It turned out very well

This came together very easy and the best part is, is that my kids LOVED it. A great way to get them to eat their veggies. I did add more veggies then the recipe called for, basicly doubling the amount. We will definately be having this again.

I loved the light flavors of this dish. My husband, however, like pasta dishes with lots of sauce so it wasn't his favorite. It's a nice light dish that's satisfying.
