...cos it's sooooooo healthy and MMA, or whatever. Ok, I got a homepride one where it says you don't have to boil the pasta but I'm not so sure. What do you guys do? Do you boil the pasta first or just put it in cos when you just put dry shells in the oven with the sauce n water etc it may not cook properly. I'll give it a go later anyhoo.

I actually made Paparadelle Carbonara last night (NOT the the healthiest version!) but I prety much just boiled the pasta, grilled some meatballs and caramalised some onion - mixed it all together with the sauce in a shallow dish then topped with breadcrumbs and cheese then stuck it in the oven...yummy!

The 2 best pasta dishes I love though is either: a simple penne with griddled green beans and chorizo (toss pasta in griddle pan to coat in chorizo oil) or...and I make this very rarely: Paparadelle with Venison, green beans and goats cheese.

God Damn I'm hungry...as if I should be eating carbs!

Homepride pasta bakes are horrible. You add the sauce and some water, and it all unifies to some unholy mess. Go for Dolmio pasta bakes

Better just knocking together something yourself.

Pasta isn't the most challenging of ingredients.

That's why it's so tasty, lol!

I just had Carbanara Pasta Bake with chicken, cheese and mushrooms. Wasn't too bad actually.

Luke, there was a great recipe for a top quality pasta bake in the last edition of Fighters Only.

Really? Hmmm I think I may have that issue, I'll has a look.

I have tried Potato bake, which is really nice. Good with a chicken breast!
