Excellent pasta dish that is easy and quick to whip up, especially when you have some leftover broccoli that you don't know what to do with. My family loved it.

This recipe was really delicious! I took into consideration some of the other reviews and used half/half instead of whipping cream. I also used a whole small can of tomato sauce and about 3tbs minced red onion, doubled the garlic, and added some chopped fresh tomatoes. I also added some grilled chicken and it turned out fabulous!!!!!

This recipe was OK. The sauce was very watery, and it looked like someone put ketchup in milk. It tasted good, though.

This was really good! I used a vegetable mix with carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower and it turned out really good.

I think this was good- I wouldn't say "the best" but nice and tasty. I'm not sure the taste warrants the fat content so next time I'll probably try 1/2 and 1/2. I also cooked my broccoli in the pasta for about 6 mins and made the sauce in a seperate pan.

All I can really say is WOW! I too sauteed the garlic and mushrooms ahead of time, added bit more cheese and tomato sauce, and then added some thinly sliced beef that I had cooked ahead of time and had my wife demand that I cook this again next weekend. It's a keeper!

this was very good. Some changes I made after the 1st time: Add sundried tomatoes, use more mushrooms and saute them w/ onions and garlic. Yum

Pretty yummy and a good way to sneak broccoli into a dish (not normally a big fan). I didn't make in one pot though -- cooked the pasta first and then in another pan I made the sauce -- then combined together. I believe I read somewhere that this is best served right away -- I actually thought it was even better the next day as a leftover.

I sauteed onions, garlic, and mushrooms then added in the cream and tomato sauce. To finish I added a handful of cheddar cheese and stirred til creamy. Delicious!

Made this tonight. It was okay. I used half and half (fat free) so I may try it again with the real cream next time...but I doubt I'll make it again.

I followed the recipe to a T and it was very bland. If I make it again I will do as some other reviews suggested. The idea is there but it needs more seasoning (still not sure what though).

Not bad as I cooked it...meaning somewhat de-fatting the recipe by using half and half and Fat Free half and half (with some cornstarch)in equal parts. I also used asparagus AND broccoli with oyster,Shitake and Portabella mushrooms and about half cup diced sweet onion. Used what I had for tomatoe sauce...a couple tablespoons of tomatoe paste mixed with white wine. Didn't add salt like usual, more garlic...not bad tasting and no need to see the cardiologist.

I used half & half with a little corn starch like suggested..But WOW! This was wonderful! I increased the recipe for serving of 8, since I try not to cook a lot during the week hoping to have leftovers for a least one day! THERE WERE NO LEFTOVERS! My husband and I took it for lunch and my 8yr old had seconds the first night. We will make this again. My son want's to know why I make such "fancy dinners"!

Followed others suggestions of adding white wine vinegar (omit red bell pepper). Used table cream (18%), sundried tomatoes, chili pepper flakes, small can tomato sauce (398ml), lots of parmesan and zucchini and lots and lots of cremini mushrooms.

Great, quick and easy! I also tried my own method which took a little longer, but was worth it! I made the sauce seperately by slowly adding 1 Cup parmesan to the melted butter and cream, then added 2 ounces of tomato sauce. I served this with spicy Italian turkey sausage, which I browned until cooked through, then added the broccoli to the pan and served it all with the pasta.

I really enjoyed this!!! I added sauteed spinach to it also. I took advice of sauteing the garlic and mushrooms for more flavor. I wish I could use something other than heavy whipping cream to lower the fat calories, but this may compromise the taste of the recipe. Yummo!

Very yummy. I would put this in the comfort food category. Everyone I made this for had seconds. I give it 4 stars because it's pretty basic, but that's okay. You can definitely add things to make this more your own recipe.
