Customer reviews
Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: The rich tomato sauce is a highlight, though some found the overall dish mild and felt the sauce could use more depth. A few suggested adding fresh garlic or a pinch of chilli to boost flavour.
- Ease of prep: Most found this genuinely quick and easy to pull together on a busy weeknight, with clear instructions and minimal effort required.
- Suggestions: Watch the tortellini closely — several reviewers found it fell apart or turned mushy when cooked beyond two to three minutes. Some preferred spinach over silverbeet, and a few suggested adding cherry tomatoes or extra vegetables to the salad for more variety.
- Leftovers: A number of customers enjoyed the pasta the following day for lunch, noting it held up well.
- Portions: Most found the serving size satisfying, though a few cooking for four felt there was not quite enough to go around.
