This a great "nothing in the pantry" recipe. Added 1/4 c chicken broth, juice of 1/2 lemon...handful of peas & a 1/4 c of fresh parsley. Of course garlic and a tablespoon of butter + one turn of evoo. Decadent.

Excellent base. I added the juice of 1/2 lemon, two sprigs of mint and a handful of Italian parsley. It made a delicious penne pasta salad.

Excellent recipe. I added 2 tbsp each fresh chives and basil from the garden. Subst. caesar for the italian dressing and added 1 tbs. of dijon and the juice of 1/2 lemon. I didn't have brocolli so I used 3/4 c of frozen peas instead. The recipe needs s&P PLUS a tsp of hot pepper flakes for added zestiness. Excellent basic recipe although it would have been too bland for our family without the additions.
