Not to bad! I used all dry herbs and substituted half the butter with olive oil. Also added parmesean cheese like other reviewers suggested. Quick and good!

I used whole wheat pasta, I don't know if that makes a difference... The flavor was just so bland overall. Also, I used a mixture of fresh and dry spices. Maybe it would have been better just completely one way or the other. I thank the author for sharing, but I would not recommend this recipe.

Keep it simple - wonderful concept. I did use 3 tbsp olive oil w/ 3 tbsp margerine to make it healthier. I also didn't have marjoram, savory or black olives and added 1 tsp of oregano. Also added a few chopped muchrooms & some broccoli flowers, grated. Was lovely. I will use this again, and try out different combinations. Thank you!

We really, really liked this! I needed to use a small amount of leftover angel hair pasta & this really did it justice. I halved the recipe but used about 2 Tablespoons fresh basil, left out the savory (don't own any) & though we like black olives, personally I saw no reason to include them. I don't care how "basic" & "simple" it is - IMO the recipe deserves a 5-star rating because it tastes so darn good! This will be one of the regulars around here for sure!

My girlfriend says this rivals Olive Garden. You'll love it.

Very good! It's nice to find a recipe using so many fresh herbs that I have available. I did have fresh marjoram so I used that instead of dry. Super simple and tasty!

I made this as a side dish for a special meal with my family, but didn't add the olives, or savory, and my family( and me) LOVED it! It was gone, every speck, within half of dinner. I'm definetely going to make it again.

My 7-year-old son didn't care much for the herbs in this recipe, although he is kind of a picky eater in that way. My husband and I both thought it was really good. I would definitely use less butter next time and more olive oil. It's a very fresh recipe; it takes away from it knowing how many calories you're consuming. All in all--a good recipe!!
