Very simple receipe and easy to prepare but very nice nevertheless.

If it weren't for the cheese I'd say the flavour was almost non-existent. The amount of cheese called for in this recipe saved it for sure as we're cheese lovers. This is super quick and easy to throw together, but I'd say it's more of a base recipe with more veggies and spices needed to make it a whole meal. DH loves pasta and tomatoes though so he'd eat this happily everyday
