. The Homepride Pasta Bake, known in our house for it's great taste, ease of preparing and how much it fills you up! We started cooking these over a year ago now and they've become part of our monthly routine. We stock up at Morrison's (because Waitrose and Sainsbury's Local seem to be Pasta Bake prejudice!) on our weekly shop and store them for when we fancy one or for when funds are running a little lower than usual. Infact it has been known for ...
...who doesn't love that little Homepride man from the ads? The glass jar is a good size, so you can get a meal for four out of it.

HOMEPRIDE PASTA BAKE I work shifts and sometimes they can be 12hrs long due to staff shortages from illness, pregnancy and holidays etc, we do have cooking facilities at work, but I prefer to take something I have prepared earlier and can heat up in the microwave or eat cold.

...(and curries), I found the Homepride pasta bake on special offer at Tesco buy 2 for £2 so thought I would give them a go.

Advantages: so easy to make you even use dried pasta
Disadvantages: although it says 'serves 4' its more like 2

...and reach for my trusty homepride pasta bake. My little boy has made 'mummy's cheesy pasta' legendary around nursery! So it really does appeal to all the family. This really is the easiest meal you can make without venturing into the realms of 'ready meals'. Basically you put 200g of dried pasta (no need to cook it first) into a oven proof dish, add the sauce and then fill the jar up with water up to the label and add that too. Then its just a case ...
...gas mark 6 (200degreesC) Whilst thats on grate 200g of cheese (mild is best as the bake is quite strong cheesewise already). Then after 20 mins you sprinkle that on and pop it back into the oven for for 25mins and hey presto. The pasta goes really nice and soft and the sauce is lovely and rich. The cheese on top goes hard and crunchy making a nice contrast to the bake. The bits of bacon are a nice size, i think any bigger and they would be too big, ... Read review

Advantages: Quick, easy and simple to do!

...It does what it says on the jar: You bake pasta! Sometimes after a hard day with Kyrtis I need something quick and easy for mealtimes – this is as easy as it gets! I also love pasta so this was definitely for me… The Product: Homepride’s Pasta Bake, 425g jar. It comes in a variety of flavours:  Cheese & Bacon  Creamy Tomato & Bacon  Creamy Tomato & Herb  Creamy Ham & Mushroom  Spicy Tomato & Pepperoni The one that I am using for this opinion is the Cheese & Bacon but I have had the two creamy tomato one’s before also. These have 1 E number in - E301, for those who keep a check on E numbers in food. Half of the ingredients I have no idea what they are but they must be good for you - lol!
