Saw Chef1MOM's review and had "Picollino" Penne --tiny ones, and much of the suggested additions. Instead of canned tomatoes, had halved grape tomatoes, some fresh broccoli, green onions, (forgot the sugar !) - and canned mushrooms. Added some extra olive oil at the end, and had a very nice all-in-one-dish dinner !!Thanks for posting, E/Nigma

Made for PAC2009. This is super duper for me. A quick lunch or dinner for DH and I. I followed the recipe minus mushrooms (not allowed). I like the flavor although it seemed to be missing that punch of something to kickstart the tastebuds. (garlic or adobo, or something) I will definitley make this again as the ease of making is great and I cN play with the gusto. I can see using up that leftover chicken from dinner to make a whole new meal. I can see adding in some brocolli or asparagus as well. YUMMMMMMMY Thank you. A keeper in my book for sure.
