  1. I've made this recipe a bunch of times now. It's such a simple and easy recipe. A few changes I usually make is to use butter instead of olive oil since I prefer that buttery taste. I rarely have fresh parsley on hand so I just use dried. And I add extra onion.

  2. This was really good, and a breeze to make. I used two cans of clams, though, just cuz I like a lot of 'em in every bite.
     
  3. The other day my 20 year old college student son asked me for a good recipe. He wanted to make dinner for a young lady friend of his. Although he grills great chicken, he doesn't have a lot of experience in the kitchen (but he wants to learn). He wanted a pasta dish, but fancier than opening up a jar of spaghetti sauce. I thought of linguine w/clam sauce. When I did the search I found this recipe by Nurse Di. I have tried a lot of her recipes and have never been disappointed. I gave the recipe to my son. He made it for dinner, just as stated. He later left a message for me that it was really good (I trust his taste in food thus the 5 stars). I can't wait to try it myself.
     
  4. This is wonderful. I followed the recipe exactly. We gobbled down every last bite. It was fast and easy. I will be making this again and again. Thanks, NurseDi!
