Liked it very much. I didn't add pasta and lentils. Instead I added 2 carrots and half a coliflor.

It's really delicious! I tried it out with zucchini, penne and lemon juice. I can't wait to try it out with eggplant next

Amazing recipe. I think this is the first aubergine recipe I truly enjoyed
I added some vegan cheddar to bolster the taste :)

Lots of nice veggies but turned out quite bland.
I had to add spices and something sweet and a bit of lemon to give it a kick

Hi there, Anna, thanks for sharing your experience with the pasta. This recipe is one of our more simple ones so we've noted down the feedback 🤗


Julia - Aug. 19, 2024, 12:03 a.m.

This is very yum! I will be making again. Probably make the sauce and use for something other than pasta. 👌🏽

Think is a little too simple and non-creative. I’ve gained a lot of great recipes from you (PUL), but recently I feel like the creativeness is gone and see a lot of repetition.

Absolutely delicious! All those bits of vegetables combined with my favorite pasta sauce and pasta (I used penne) were just heavenly. I enjoyed this with fresh basil and vegan parmesan.as per your suggestion 😊

Whoop whoop! So happy to hear the pasta was enjoyed, Martunia 🙌

So tasty!! Rigatoni is my new favourite pasta noodle. Next time I’d like to try and make the roasted garlic pasta sauce PUL has and put it in this!
Thanks so much team!! 🫶

Yayyy so happy hear, Brooke! Rigatoni is one of our favourites too 🤩


Terhi Stratton - April 16, 2024, 2:35 a.m.

YUM! This tastes soooo good and is very easy and quick to make (I cooked the lentils and pasta ahead of time, which sped things even more at dinner time). Thanks for suggesting zucchini as a replacement for eggplant, as I'm not a fan of the latter, but loved it with zucchini. My family doesn't like crunchy fresh veggies ,so the more I can put in the dish itself the better.
Excellent recipe! Thank you so much!

Woohoo! We're so happy to hear the pasta was enjoyed, Terhi, and love that you were able to modify it to your families preferences☺️


Leah - April 5, 2024, 5:40 a.m.

I made this with the zucchini substitution and spiral pasta, and it was absolutely delicious! I love how packed with veggies it is. I’ll definitely be making this one again.


Monarae M - March 26, 2024, 3:32 a.m.

This was fantastic!


nedajane - Feb. 8, 2024, 5:29 a.m.

This was pretty flavorful! Love the variety of vegetables! The cooking time seems off for the carrot portion, they were still rather crunchy by the time I sat down to eat the meal.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 8, 2024, 5:17 p.m.

Hey Nedajane, glad it was enjoyed and thanks for the feedback! Finely chopping the carrot can help it cook quickly 😊


Ha-Lamm - Nov. 26, 2023, 2:50 p.m.

This was a delicious meal!! I loved and enjoyed it soo much 🤩 Even though I had no spinach and sun-dried tomatoes, the natural taste of the vegetables gave the sauce a very rich taste. I also loved that the softness of the eggplants and the crunch of the carots remained. I will make it surely one more time with spinach and sun-dried tomatoes. I can already imagine how it would taste 🤤 And because I personally like some spiciness in tomato-sauces, I added some Korean chilli-paste (gojuchang). This was a great combination, too 😊

PUL small logo PUL Team - Nov. 26, 2023, 10:44 p.m.

Mmm thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience with the pasta, Ha-Lamm! We're so glad it was enjoyed and hope you love it with spinach and sun-dried tomatoes next time. Gochujang is a delicious idea to spice it up as well 🤩


kaylin - Oct. 11, 2023, 3:07 a.m.

Excellent the way it is! I love spice so i added some red chili flakes :)


Nazia A - Sept. 10, 2023, 10:49 p.m.

Oh gosh, I can’t even comprehend into words how delicious this was. I replaced the eggplant with zucchini and sundried tomato in oil with red peppers in oil instead. I loved it and will serve as a weekly night rotation for dinners. I loved the emphasis of adding veggies in as I’m not someone too keen on them but in all, combination was perfect. Sprinkled some basil on top and was so pleased!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Sept. 11, 2023, 3:19 a.m.

Oh we're so thrilled to hear, Nazia, thank you! Eggplant is a lovely idea as well. Happy nourishing 💛

Once I get better at chopping this would be a great weeknight meal. Very tasty! My 10 year old loved it and enjoyed helping chop the eggplant!
