This is a great dish and easy to prepare. I use it on traditional pasta, gluten free, and over baked zucchini. It is good no matter what I pair it with! Thank you!

This is my review of this meal chicken pasta bacon chicken with tomatoes. I made this but didnt add the chicken, pasta, bacon, tomatoes, garlic, onion or cream. I was dissapointed as it just tasted of cheese :( needless to say i will not be trying this recipe again :( -
I made this 2day and it was fab, the only thing I didn't add was cheese as my fella, can't eat cheese but it was great cnt wait to make this soon :-) -
This is a good recipe. I like to make it but can be a little bit bland. I like garlic so we add a couple cloves of garlic (minced). I also like to try and get as much veg in there as possible. Liked the mushrooms that was suggested. -
Easy and tasty. A bit too rich for my taste, but DH loved it. I used red bell pepper instead of tomato and added mushrooms as suggested by other reviewers. All-in-all, a successful quick meal. My little one didn't care for it, and she's a pretty good eater, so I probably won't make it again, but I would still recommend it. Thanks, anyhow. It was worth a try!
