Very creative. Unfortunately it was not palpable for my family. Great Idea, but the taste is just too weird. Maybe it is something you have to get used to. (Like horseradish or mustard greens) I give you 5 stars for creativity, but Unfortunately we had to throw our whole batch out. (and I miss the cheese I used in these)

    Interesting! I'll not rate it yet because I neglected to read the part about tossing in sauce. Sooo, mine were pretty dry, even with 1 cup of cheese. I froze the remainder and will serve them with some type of sauce later. I think these could be good.

    I wasn't a fan of these, though my daughter liked them. I added parmesan and basil and oregano and still found them quite bland. I love the idea of pasta muffins though, so I may play around with it a ittle and try again

    These were really good muffins. I had posted a recipe request for left over pasta, and this was one of the recipes you suggested. For my muffins I used spaghetti w/ my own marinara sauce, a mild cheddar and a little parmesean cheese added in. I also included the garlic and italian seasoning. Really cool idea, I will be making these again. Thanks Anme
