I absolutely LOVED this recipe! I did add some chopped grilled chicken and fresh mushrooms to the recipe just because I love both and they were a great addition. I have made this many times and my family loves too!

This recipe lives up to its name; it really was amazing! I made a few modifications, as suggested by other readers. I started with sauted shallots and garlic, to which I added the cream and butter. I also added some red pepper flakes, omitted the nuts and added peas and shrimp to finish. I served the sauce over Trader Joe's artichoke tortellinis and it was a BIG hit.

Great recipe. I also added garlic. But I love pine nuts. I lightly fried them and the sun dried tomatoes (in their oil) together and then used the fried mixture in the recipe. Browning the pine nuts gives them a different texture and a nice flavour.

simply amazing!!! I used the sun-dried tomatoes that weren't in oil and boiled them so they weren't as chewy. I think next time I would definitely get the ones in oil but other than that it was amazing!!!!!

The base of this recipe is really good! I added things to make it more substantial. First, I sautéed a chopped onion and sliced portabella mushrooms in margarine. I also grilled 3 or 4 chicken breasts and chopped them up. I added all this to the sauce! I also suggest using more cheese & sun dried tomato than called for. I used parmesan & also an Italian blend shredded cheese. I used 4 cups 1/2 and 1/2... increasing everything else by 4. It made a big pot that fed about 12 adults. Everyone asked for the recipe....

Great and simple recipe! The added pine nuts completed the sauce. I made this for my parents to go with gnocchi - big hit.

This was fairly good. I used fat free half n half instead of cream, to make healthier. Didnt use mozzarella, but reggiano....Then I added sauteed garlic and cooked all together, then I poured in blender and pureed to a creamy sauce. Will use again!

Really tasty with the addition of basil. Creamy and tasty. I used mac noodles, but probably would have been better with fettuccine (sp) or what other's have recommended. Oh and I boiled the dried tomatoes so they'd be softer.

Sorry, we tried this and found it bland. Needs something to liven it up...maybe use this as a base and add capers or olives?

I liked this recipe and it was very easy. The sauce didn't have quite enough flavor for me, though, even after adding extra salt, pepper, cheese and tomato. Next time I might try it with all shredded parmesan.

Came out ok, but I made a few mistakes - purchased the ingredients from memory and ended up with half and half instead of heavy cream, so my sauce came out a bit gloppy once I added the cheese. Great flavor though, I omitted the pine nuts which I think was another mistake. I would definitely make this recipe again and try to get it right.

I tried this recipe last night and it was absolutely WONDERFUL! I left out the pine nuts since I didn't have them handy. I was cooking for a crowd, so I doubled the sauce recipe which covered an entire box of Penne. I also added chicken, and chopped fresh basil. Served with a spinach caprese salad and bread. Super easy to make!

This is wonderful. I made it exactly as described, except I substituted the heavy cream with half and half. (I used oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, rinsed well) Served with salad and bread, it's a super-easy meal fit for guests. Thanks!

Not bad. I had to jazz it up a bit though. I sauteed mushrooms, added extra sun dried tomatoes ( not oil packed - to use the dried ones you need to soak them in boiling water for a few minutes then drain). a bit of garlic powder and onion salt. I also added some leftover grilled chicken. Without all of the add ins the sauce would have been bland.

So easy, and so delicious! I made it just according to the recipe the first time and loved it, and then when company came I used penne pasta, added grilled chicken, artichoke hearts and sliced mushrooms. It was a hit.

Great Recipe! I'm new to cooking and it was very easy for me to make, the only change I would make is to add a little less cheese, but other wise this was a great recipe, very tasty.
