Intersting, even though it requires a bit of work. I used small shell pasta and mozzarella cheese and it worked pretty well, but I thought it could do with some more flavour and definitely some more salt. The pasta shells didn't seem to be quite cooked in the end, but it wasn't really noticable. This dish makes a nice presentation!
