Thank you for sharing this easy, yummy dish. I love how quick it was to prepare yet it looked beautiful on the plate and tasted as good as anything you would have at Olive Garden. My family enjoyed the slightly buttery noodles with cheese and loads of veggies. I did use frozen veggies and whole grain wheat (organic) pasta which made the meal very nutritious too. Recommended!

I'm a recent university graduate, and I just moved all the way across the country ... and BACK again! I loved living in BC, and now miss the mountains ... but I love being by the water again. I used to survive mainly on cereal for all my meals, but in the last few months I've rediscovered "real" food! (and subsequently gained a couple pounds. Heh). I'm always on the lookout for *healthy* recipes. I have recently rekindled a love affair with smoothies. They're sooo good!
My pet peeves ... are too many to list! I've got somewhat of a short temper ... lol. Definitely working on curbing it, but it's so hard!
