Very good! I added fresh asparagus, carrots, and broccoli to the pasta as it cooked. (chopped the veggies small enough to cook in 15 minutes.) Be sure to cook soup mixture the full 10 minutes so those hard vegetable flakes soften!

good recipe, but i made some alterations to it [so i'm rating based on the turnout after I changed things around.] instead of measuring out milk, i added little by little until desired consistancy was reached. also, i added in sauteed normany vegetables [broccoli, carrots, cauliflour] and shrimp. i opted to leave out the soup mix entirely, and rather kept adding salt to taste.

Even though I skipped the salt, this was really salty and tasted very processed. I ended up having to dilute it with more milk in the end because it was so salty but that just made it runny. My husband gagged and refused to eat it. I was able to eat it fine though. If you're going to try this recipe, skip the salt!
