This recipe is wonderful when you need to make something quickly for those little hungry fellows. Or when the play date gets to stay for lunch at the last minute.
I make this recipe with all kinds of pasta, even spaghetti, but my favorite type of pasta is Rotini Vegetable pasta. I like this type mostly because it has vegetable powder and is lighter to my taste (less starch) and the shape holds more sauce and cheese. It is also colourful and fun for the kids to enjoy their meal visually.
A few days ago I had to make a quick lunch, both of my kids were starving when we arrived from park. So I came up with this quick recipe the whole process took about 15 minutes which worked for me because both loved it.
Here it is: ( the amount of ingredients are approximate as there was no time to meager 
)
| Ingredient: | ||
| 1 Cup | Rotini Vegetable Pasta | |
| ¾ Cup | Cheddar cheese | |
| ½ Cup | Frozen Vegtable | |
| 1 TBsp | Sour Cream | |
| To taste | Salt and pepper | |
Direction: Pre heat oven to 450
Cook pasta as per package. A few minutes before draining the pasta add frozen vegetable to the pot. Drain pasta and vegetables and transfer to an oven safe dish, then mix in the sour cream, salt and pepper, mix well but gently to avoid breaking the pasta. At the end, mix in ½ cup of cheese when well mixed, spread the rest of cheese on top. Place the dish in the oven on the lowest rack for about 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted but not colored, then quickly change the setting to broil to create that golden color and crispy cheese factor, for about 1 minutes.
Finished, lunch is ready, kids and mom are happy
Bon a petite
