I liked the flavor. I didnt think it was as bland as other reviewers had said i did end up adding 2 extra gloves of garlic and upped the salt by 1/4 t. but that was just personal preference. I used the sauce with stuffed shells. I will be using it again.

Very bland and tasteless. Not good for pasta without adding some additional ingredients. I added some asiago cheese, basil and thyme. Best for heavier types of pasta or ravioli.

All in all this is a good base for a sauce but I added some Thyme for extra flavor as well as a dollop of sour cream for extra creaminess. Oh I also added a touch of garlic powder as suggested by other readers.

Made this to serve over meatloaf last week and felt it needed a lot more seasonings. Once I got it to my liking, it was enjoyed by everyone. Thank you!

I really loved this recipe. I ended up not being the only one loving it too. My two year old son is a picky eater. After eating this he liced his lips and said "more". I altered the recipe a bit. I put my season all salt, as well as the regular salt it called for, garlic powder, and a little more minced garlic.

It was a bit thick for angel hair. double or triple the recipe for a full box of angel hair. add more milk for creaminess. I think linguine would be a better pasta for it. otherwise, nice taste.

I wanted to surprise the wife with something new and different, and this did it! Thanks for the great recipe. My alterations - used 3 cloves of garlic and 1 tablespoon of Basil, due to the "bland" comments. It came out pretty good! My wife had it over chicken, and I decided to try pasta. I think both dishes were a success, though I had to thin the sauce with some milk to make the pasta work - if you do that, I think you have a good pasta topping!

This sauce was ok. It was a bit thick for pasta it would be better as a gravey. It was a bit bland so I upped all the spices and it turned out pretty good. ***** I have since made this several times. I think the trick is to slowly add the flour untill you get a nice roux. If you add all of it it will be too thick and grainy.

This sauce was kind of bland. Also, I made the mistake of dumping in the flour all at once, which then clumped up. Not a smart thing to do. I would spice this recipe up...it is a good base for a sauce though.

This recipe does has a floury flavor. I had to add a lot of spices before I would add it to my chicken. It is a good base for your own creativity.

This was a great sauce, but I *would not* use it for pasta. I used it with mashed potatoes and fried tofo sticks and it was just right. The consistency wouldn't be what you're looking for with a pasta dish.

I agree with those of the reviewers that found the sauce a bit bland - however, I added the recommended garlic powder, some seasoning salt, about a tbsp of soy sauce and the taste was dramatically improved. I served the gravy over buttermilk biscuits for a vegetarian version of the classic sausage gravy and biscuits breakfast and my boyfriend loved it.

i liked this recipe. I used fat free half and half instead of milk and I added some majoram and season salt (initially instead of regular salt). I tasted it as it was simmering and noted that it did taste "floury" as another user stated so I added some kosher salt in addition and it turned out great! I put it on steak and it was really good - I wouldn't recommend it for anything like pasta it is too "gravyish" for that.

Okay,after reading the little reviews that this recipe received,I was hesitant about making it.But,I decided to give it a go,following the recipe and adding more garlic salt for flavor.I even added another clove of chopped garlic,but unfortunately it didn't help.It was thick and pasty and would have been good over chicken fried steak? instead of linguine like I served it.I don't think I'll be making this again...sorry!

So easy to make!!I made this sauce tonight for over meatloaf and boiled potatoes. It was really good, except I felt that the basil flavour was a little too strong, I think I will cut it in half next time. My husband loved the sauce. I also made one modification, substituting beef stock for the milk. Thanks!
