Spiral Supreme - Pasta Excellence image

A creamy pasta dish filled with colourful vegetables, found it years ago on the label of a can of Carnation Evaporated Milk, been making it ever since, I adapt the vegetables, and add, or omit, the ham, depending on what I have, and who is eating! I've guessed at cooking and preparation times, the only real work is in preparing the vegetables....you can have the meal on the table in under twenty minutes from start to finish. Use vegetable stock cubes, and omit the ham, to make this a tasty vegetarian dish... that's how I generally prepare it!

This pasta dish was delicious! The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the spiral noodles were a nice touch. I would definitely make this again.

Overall, this pasta dish was a bit disappointing. The flavors didn't quite come together and the texture was a bit off. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This pasta dish was easy to make, but it didn't turn out as I expected. The sauce was watery and the noodles were overcooked. I think I might have made a mistake in the recipe.

The spiral noodles were a fun touch, but the sauce was a bit too heavy for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter sauce, such as a tomato-based sauce.

This pasta dish was a bit bland for my taste. The sauce was thin and lacked flavor. I think it could have used some more herbs or spices.

This pasta dish was a hit with my family! The spiral noodles were cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful and creamy. I added some extra vegetables to the sauce, and it turned out perfectly.
