This is such a tasty and versatile dish! I added dry basil, salt, and pepper, and it turned out wonderfully. I also melted the butter separately and sauteed a bunch of mushrooms and broccoli in it before adding the rest of the pasta and spices. Absolutely delicious, thanks!

I followed this as written other then I didn't add the parsley or the lemon juice. My family loved this. My hubby ate 3/4 of this before I put it on the table. We loved the subtle taste that the herbs gave to the pasta. Will be making again.

Really yummy! We used campanelli pasta, dried parsley and added about 1/2 tsp fresh garlic. Quick, easy, and delicious, thank-you!
