My review
Pasta Poblano
Monica Mannion
"This recipe relies upon a Mexican way to cook pasta. For a heartier variation stir in a little cooked and diced chicken. Poblano peppers are a dark green chile with a flavor that can range from mild to slightly spicy. They are usually around 4 to 5 inches long and are sometimes known as Ancho or Mulato chiles."

Yick! I threw the whole thing out before even trying to serve it. I think the onion was to blame: way too much onion! If I ever attempt this recipe again, I would add only about 1/4 onion or ...

This recipe was awful. The sauce was bitter from the poblano pepper. We tossed the entire meal.

YUM! Husband and son devoured it. Used 2 poblanos. Love the trick of cooking poblanos with the noodles-- they were tasty even before they went into the sauce.
