  • “Very good!My husband came home and commented on how you could smell the aroma from outside!Little does he know how much I really chopped up those onions and peppers so he wouldn’t notice them, he hates them.We enjoyed this dish very much; and it’s a great low fat dish.”

  • “So easy and so good! Served with a salad and some garlic bread. Loved the fact that everything was done in one pan and it took only minutes to make.”

  • “Very good.Even my 4yr old ate every bite!I used italian seasoned chicken broth instead and basil (I was out of oregano) and elbow macaroni.I will definately make this again – as requested by my daughter.”

  • “Outstanding.Tastes like something you’d order at Olive Garden or Macaroni Grill.I doubled the recipe as I have a super sized skillet and we serve 6. I did space out and used veg oil instead of olive (I had read recipe but not while cooking). I did the peppers and onions very small and started them for 5 min before I added the chicken them cooked them together. I used a whole box of Barilla bow tie pasta and cooked covered 13 min. Served with buttered brocoli and bread. I have rated alot of recipes and this is I think the 2nd time a 5 star was deserved.”

  • “Excellent and easy to make.I didn’t know I could cook!My family loved it.”

  • “Anything my picky eater husband likes is a 5 star to me! This was very good and I will make it again. I modified the recipe just a little. I added 1/2 tsp of minced garlic and a 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes. I added zucchini during the last 5 min of cooking in place of green peppers and I pureed the tomatoes before adding so there were no tomato chunks. We topped it with fresh grated parmesan. Thanks for the great recipe!”

  • “I forgot that I had made this! (I made it last spring) Anyways, I found that it was very good. The only problem with it (my fault) was cooking the noodles all the way. Some of the shells were still hard, so next time I have to make sure they are all cooked!”

  • “Excellent dinner.Good work MizzNezz.Added just a few dried chili flakes for bite.”

  • “This doesn’t need any more rave reviews, but I did try something not posted. I used a 8.9 oz. bag of Barilla three cheese tortellini and simmered on high heat. It was perfect if you’re a cheese lover like me.”

  • “A gigantic hit at my house!Easy to throw together too.I added freshly grated parmesan and it made it even better.Thanks for a great recipe.”

  • “YUMMMM!!!I made this tonight for hubby and I.The only pasta I had on hand was the corkscrew pasta, and it worked great; I thought it made it a little more interesting, LOL!The flavors are wonderful!!!I omitted the green pepper because neither hubby or I like them; this was SOO good!!!Kind of like a homemade “chicken helper” type thing, but way better!!!I also grated a little parmesan over the top before serving.Also served with cheddar garlic biscuits, the perfect accompaniment!! Thank you!”

  • “Wow!! A nice weekend meal that doesn’t require a lot of time. Served with a sides salad and Texas Toast and your meal is planned.”

  • “Easy to prepare. Wonderful aroma! I used red peppers instead of green because I prefer red peppers. We all really enjoyed it.”
