If there were a zero star category, I would have given it that rating. Unless you LOVE the taste of CANNED vegetables, don't make this. I've been married for 31 years, and this was only the second dish I've ever made that my husband and I had to throw out because it was so awful. The first one happened the first year we were married. I thought I was pretty good at reading recipes and picking good ones, but this was truly bad.

I had to add a small can of sauce to even get the blender to turn over to puree the mixture. The asparagus really overpowers the flavor and I used freshly cooked asparagus instead of canned. I cut off the tips to add to the mushrooms and peas on top. Overall my husband (the mushroom lover) OK'd the recipe, but my daughter and I had a hard time finishing our plate. I won't make this again.

This was very tasty to me. I did however use fresh asparagus instead of canned, I like the crunch of asparagus that isn't over cooked. thanks

Not only was this easy to make, but it was very tasty! It looked a little bland, but the taste more than made up for the appearance.

Made this with fresh asparagus (added a little water when blending) and fresh peas, so had great texture. Was nice but a little "ordinary" - nothing to rave about but very filling - a comfort food rather than a dinner party dish.

I'm not sure if I didn't make it right or not, but I followed the directions step for step. This think is awful. I tried to finish it off with a lot of Parm. Cheese, but nothing could save it.

Ok.. So the servings must be wrong on this. I followed the ingredients to a T and I got a whole pot full of sauce.. I agree with the other reviewer that I had to add liquid to it while blending. I chose Vegetable broth. With all the sauce I can't imagine how only 1/2 pound of noodles would even dent this. I would suggest that you add seasonings to taste. I added about 3-4 tblspns of minced garlic, my taste to sea salt and fresh grated pepper, garlic powder and salt and onion powder. I also added an onion to the mix and I couldn't bear using canned asparagus so I used frozen. I also blended all the mushrooms and peas with the sauce because I didn't think it would look good on top of the sauce. My results were mixed. I think it’s a pretty good light healthy pasta, but my daughter thought it was disgusting because of the color and texture. I ate mine, my daughter didn't finish her's and opted out for a PB and Jelly sandwich. I don't think I will make this again.. as I have enough leftovers to last me awhile.

I didn't pay close enough attention to the recipe before cooking to realize that the "sauce" in this recipe is actually a bland paste of mashed, canned asparagus. The sauce could be better if mixed into a heavy cream sauce for a better consistency. Won't make again.
