This dish was a hit! It was especially a winner for the cook! It was easy and quick to fix. I loved that there was very little to clean up after making the meal. I am excited for this is to be a repeat.

Unfortunately this is the first Betty Crocker recipe I have tried here that just fell flat with my family. It sounded delicious - how can you go wrong with pasta, cheese, etc? I made the recipe exactly as written but I'm afraid we found the dish to be much too bland - flavorless, really. I agree with some other reviewers who suggested it could use a punch from garlic or other seasoning. It made a beautiful presentation (and I loved the quick and easy aspect) but not enough flavor.
