Amazing comfort food This was delicious! Will definitely try with the added spinach next time. The consistency was wonderfully creamy the flavor was excellent. The only issue was that with 4 boys this dish didn't quite make enough to have as a main dish. Maybe it would be good as a side dish or for when not everyone will be home. But this is definitely getting added to the recipe box! Pros: Not difficult and very tasty Cons: Didn't make enough to feed my fam of 5 (4 boys)
This tasty dish satisfied our old fashioned baked mac & cheese cravings with a much healthier dish.
Defrosted and drained a package of frozen chopped spinach to mix in with the tortellini and sauce. Helped to add some green veg to the meal.
Adding the spinach is a great idea. It was delicious.
Probably won't make again I made this exactly per directions. First it took WAY longer to cook than called for. Second it was dry and bland...completely boring. Everyone in the house voted that if I were to cook it again I would have to completely revamp the recipe. The ground nutmeg gave it a very weird flavor...I didn't mind it so much but my meat-and-potatoes boyfriend called it a weird after-taste. Pros: Filling Cons: Bland dry
Bland! Another variation on mac and cheese. I used ww tortelini and added spinach to made it a complete meal. I will make it again however I will use a more favorable cheese and add at least a tbsp. of dijon mustard. I'll recommend this recipe with reservations. Pros: Good recipe for Meatless Mondays. Cons: Very bland.
Good but needs a bit more I added peas and grated carrots plus chopped garlic and Parmesan cheese. I also added grilled chicken breasts cut up to provide meat to the meal. My family liked it this way but next time I may try the Gruyer cheese since others seem to think that would be a stronger cheese. Also it isn't easy to find lo-fat items in a small town so my final calorie and fat count was probably higher. Pros: Didn't take too long; could fix ahead refrigerate and then bake; easy to change to a main dish; Cons: Sauce is too bland by itself
Delicious comfort food... and easy! I loved this recipe! I had to cook it a lot longer and the sauce was a little watery but it eventually thickened up into a nice sauce. My 2 girls loved it as well. Definitely a keeper! Pros: Easy kid's love it few ingredients Cons: Wasn't near as good reheated.
Wasteful I even jazzed this up with more flavorful cheese but it was truly dismal. It went into the garbage. Pros: none
