  1. Loved it!! It was delicious - the pasta was still boiling and I couldn't stop eating the sauce w/a spoon. This will become a staple of mine .... for pasta, for dips, w/more ingredients .... the possibilities are endless.
     
  2. I made this for dinner tonight and the kids and I all liked it. I also wish I had a little more direction with the ingredients. I used an 8 ounce container of chive and onion cream cheese, a 12 ounce jar of roasted red peppers. I processed the two together in the blender and then added just a little of the oil that the peppers were packed in to give it more of the red pepper flavor. I added some cooked, diced chicken that I seasoned with italian seasoning and some mushrooms. It made a nice main dish. Thanks for the recipe.
     
  3. I thought this was really good. I used a 12oz jar of Mezzetta roasted bell peppers and a 6.5oz container of Philadelphia Parmesan with Garlic & Herb Cracker Spreads.
     
  4. I love any recipe with roasted red peppers and cheese! I used Boursin cheese-shallot and chives-and added it to the red pepper mixture in the food processor with some garlic and fresh basil...so good and so easy! Will make again and again!

  5. Very good! I used 16oz of red peppers and used 1/2 of a spreadable cheese and a container of Philadelphia cooking cream (Italian herb), added come chicken and green peppers strips for extra veggies and protein. This will be making it's way into our regular dinner rotation.

Tweaks

  1. While I originally thought I would branch out and try this with roasted red peppers like the recipe called for, I just could not be so brave. So, I substituted a can of roasted tomatoes for the peppers. This was so yummy - and very easy! (I know this totally defeats the whole title of the recipe, so I will try it again with the red peppers.)
     
  2. I love this recipe. I actually used goat cheese instead of the garlic and herb spreadable cheese and it came out fantastic. Thank you soooo much!
     
  3. This recipe is delicious. I wasn't quite sure of how big of a container was supposed to be used for the garlic & herb spreadable cheese so I just picked up a 12 oz one. We ended up using 16 ounces of rotelle pasta instead of 12 ounces but about 2/3 of a Tablespoon of black pepper helped make up for the lower sauce:pasta ratio. I definitely plan to make this delicious yet inexpensive and simple dish again.
