I have made this one several times because it is easy and nutritious. However, it does seem to lack some oommph. Maybe I'll try the cheese as one reviewer suggested.

Made it double sized. Liked the recipe, but will use less pasta and more bell peppers next time. Also, the family sprinkled Monterey Jack cheese in it and loved it even more!
