  • “Hard to believe something so easy and simple can taste so fantastic! I halved this recipe, used spaghetti and only 1 tsp of butter, and it still tasted very rich and mmmmm 🙂 I also added a lot of pepper, since the recipe doesn’t call for any other spices. Thanks… this is great for a quick meal for a student like me!”

  • “Thanks for posting Dancer^! This was a great side dish. Colorful, simple and tasty. The poppy seeds make this dish.I can’t explain the flavor of the seeds (very nice) but they give it a tiny crunch to contrast the smooth fettuccine. Yummy. Thanks to Ginny Sue as I needed double the butter as well. If you don’t have the poppy seeds don’t make it, it just wouldn’t be the same. Made for Zaar Cookbook Tag May/June2010 Enjoy! ChefDLH”
