    Excellent! I used fresh veggies from the garden..peppers,zucchini and carrots. I didn't use the mushrooms, mozzarella or olives. I used the rest of the ingredients and cooked it according to the recipe. We added grated romano cheese before serving. A simple, quick and inexpensive summer dinner!

    I'm always on the lookout for recipes that incorporate lots of vegetables and this was it. I did cook the vegetables longer and used brown rice pasta (gluten free and we really liked this. The olives & smoked mozzarella can make it pricey, but I just used a little less of each and made the whole meal a second time the next week. Even the kids liked it!

    Overall this is an extremely bland recipe. The sauce is really watery because it doesn't have a chance to reduce. And even then, it really needs some wine to make this dish stand out at all. The mushrooms taste great, but that's because they've been marinating for days in your fridge. The smoked mozzarella is expensive and you definitely don't get a piece in every bite. I'd recommend using good parmigiano instead.

    The time commitment to the vegetables is definitely more than 5 minutes.

    I would never make this again.
