“This is my absolute favorite comfort food! I love it so much- there are no changes necessary!!!! Thanks so much for sharing.”

“I loved this! I added basil to it though.”

“Made this for a side dish for chicken.We loved it!!Added a bit less butter and olive oil and some fresh grounded pepper.Thanks Miranda! :)”

“I made this with romano rather than parmesan cheese and sprinkled with Italian herb seasoning. Scrumptious!”

“Easy, and family liked this a lot. My hubby likes plain pasta, I like a bit of flavour, we were both happy with this side dish.”

“This was just OK in my humble opinion. I tried a bowl as is and thought it was a little blah. The addition of onion was good though. Once I added some cajun seasoning and sour cream, it went up a few notches. My 9 yr old enjoyed it. He likes plain pasta. Thanks for sharing!”

“Very good and easy. This was great for my family. I don’t eat seafood, but the rest of the family does so was looking for a good tasting pasta with or without shrimp. I made some simple panned seared shrimp for them to add to it.I did add basil at the end. My husband even enjoyed it and he is usually only a fan of the red sauce. I also paired with Cookin’ Cutie’s Red Lobster Garlic Biscuits. Can’t get enough garlic in this house! Great pasta recipe. Thank you so much!”
