Another quick and easy meal for lunch and of course best of all the kids liked it. I used a 4oz can of mushrooms and yellow squash when I made mine. I did take the liberty to add 3 ounces of tomato paste just to darken the pasta. By the end of the cooking time, I may have added about another cup of water. I topped each serving with about 1 1/2 tablespoon of cheese, that way I cut down on some of the fat. Yum, I'll make this again. Made for *Bargain Basement 2009* game
