This recipe met my three top criteria when cooking: fast, easy and delicious. I can't believe I've been making mac & cheese (Kraft Dinner for my Canadian friends) all these years when this recipe gives the same satisfaction as "comfort food" but with much more flavor and nutrition. The mint adds a great flavor. This recipe is perfect for lunch or as a side at dinner. It's definitely a keeper.
