Very good! Going to add chicken to it next time we make it!

Loved this recipe! I added a little white wine for additional flavor.

We enjoyed this light pasta dish! Although, the pasta (we used angel hair) clumped together because there wasn't enough butter/oil. The taste was good...we also added a can of chopped portabella mushrooms. Good summer recipe!

Really good! I used frozen broccoli because I always have that on hand. This will be great in the summer when tomatoes are going full force!

This is a great recipe! I did add about one cup of sliced portabella mushrooms and some oregeno from my garden. Easy, healthy and delish!
