It was just ok for me. Maybe I didn't make it right but just didn't like the combination of ingredients. Wish I could have liked it. Not for me.

The family really liked this one. I didn't have any mushrooms and substituted pasta sauce for tomato paste and it was still very yummy. I did also add the smoked salmon near the end, as I didn't want it to get too chewy.

This recipe was yummy except I added a couple of my own personal favorites to jazz it up: a couple squeezes of lemon juice, a couple of fresh tomatoes, a couple drops of Tabasco, sun dried tomatoes, capers (you must try if you like that flavor!!), fresh ground black pepper and Parmesan cheese. I would recommend maybe adding the smoked salmon last for the final 1-2 mins.(at the very most) of cooking so that it does not get over cooked and get chewy in the pasta, but that could just be my personal taste. Overall this was great, thanks!

I only used what I had on hand, so I did not follow the recipe exactly, but nonetheless, a very good base and I will definitely make this again. PS: I used fresh tomatoes instead of tomatoe paste.

Yikes,what a waste of good, expensive ingrediants. The sauce was very bland and just did not work, tried adding hot pepper and white wine instead of water but to no avail. My husband (a former chef)agrees.

I'm not sure why everyone loves this. I like smoked salmon. I got a package of it from Costco and used that. I made homemade pesto and it tasted good by itself. The smoked salmon, however, was extremely salty and the rest of the sauce was bland. I couldn't taste very well the onion, garlic, basil, or tomato! I did have to use tomato sauce instead of tomato paste but is that what really did it? I read another reviewer did that also and still loved the recipe. My husband really didn't like it, and I just thought it was OK .. very boring and the smoke flavor was way too strong, overpowering everything else.

Very good recipe. The only thing is that I kept some pasta water aside because I had a feeling the pesto would be too thick, and I was right. I ended up using a full cup of water. I also used bowtie pasta and mixed it all together in a big bowl. It turned out great and everyone loved it.
