Single is just enough for me as long as I have soup with a wrap or similar before the meal. Serving sizes ate pretty reasonable.

This is now a recommended cooking method on their website/products.

I spent nearly an hour one night at Lake Vera hut trying to boil the water off one of these. Gave up and ate it as the soup that it was. Tasted good at least!

I find it very unusual cooking method. Traditionally with Pasta, you cook, than drain the water and add the sauce. With Strive Food you don't drain the water. I've never seen pasta with so much liquid when It's served. I think it's way to much water. Next time I'll try cooking with less water. Pasta meals should not be saturated.
