M&S Roasted Mushroom & Mascarpone Pasta

During lockdown, restaurants visits were non existent yet M&S was able to offer many restaurant comforts especially fancy pastas.
Although lockdown is over, I appreciate the ready meals at M&S because commerically made foods tend to be consistent as they have a formula and standard.
I have eyed the Marks and Spencers Roasted Mushroom & Mascarpone Pasta for a while which is one of their popular items as it usually sold out.
The Roasted Mushroom & Mascarpone Pasta does not say much but it is actually Italian egg giglio pasta with creamy mushroom sauce, roasted mushrooms and fresh baby leaf spinach in a rich truffle and mascarpone cream.
Compared to other ready meals, the way this pasta is laid out is slightly sophisticated because there is a trivet separating the sauce the pasta.
A trivet is a thing that elevates / separates something.

Instructions for the pasta is either stir fry or the microwave and I chose to microwave it.
When it is ready, you basically remove the trivet and mix it all together.
For photos, I put the pasta on the plate an drizzled the sauce on top but after I took the photos I mixed them thoroughly together.
I could definitely understand why it was popular because the creamy mushroom sauce and the giglio pasta was good together.
There were lots of mushrooms and spinach leaves to balance it out.
