This dish is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the sweet bell peppers and the pasta, and they don't even notice the hidden spinach.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dish didn't turn out as well as I expected. The sauce was too watery and the pasta was overcooked.

I thought this dish was just okay. The bell peppers were a bit too crunchy for my taste and the sauce was a little bland.
