Broccoli and Pasta Bianco

"I found this in one of those little check stand cook booklets. This one was in Campbell's - Slow down to Cook Faster. I enjoyed it, and although it's shown as a main course, I'd use it more as a side dish. It does border on the bland for some, so experiment with spicing it up a bit. I found my 2-quart baking dish wasn't large enough and had to transfer to a larger one."

  1. I was looking for a broccoli and pasta dish that didn't contain meat, and wasn't terribly high in calories, and this fit the bill! I followed the recipe, except that I mixed the soup, milk & pepper in a mixing bowl, and poured it over everything else when it was ready to go in the oven. I used a glass 13 x 9 x 2 baking pan, but found it wasn't really large enough to contain all the ingredients. I ended up leaving out a little bit of the pasta & broccoli so that it wouldn't overflow. This was very good, and something that I'll definately make again, in a larger pan! Thanks! :)
     
  2. I did not give this a star rating because of my changes and mistakes. I added diced cooked chicken which I liked. But instead of using canned cream mushroom soup I used a dry mix that I added water to. Big mistake. It became too watery with the milk and water called for in the recipe. My husband added a whole lot of mozz and chedder to try and thicken it up but it was WAY TOO cheesy. I will try this recipe again. It seems to be a great recipe and I think if I had made it right everyone would have loved it.
     
  3. Good comfort food. I used a combination of Colby and Monterey Jack instead of mozzarella -- just yummy. Family raved. Thanks!
