My husband enjoyed this recipe. I was nervous when the cream cheese looked clumpy but it smoothed out after putting in the hot water. I doubled the recipe since my husband is a big eater. I also added chopped fresh spinach, some pepper and garlic salt. Next time I will try using chicken broth instead of water and see if it tastes even better!

I attemped this recipe and it turned out aweful. The sauce was clumpy and bland. Maybe because I tried to use lowfat cream cheese? Or maybe it was that I used dried herbs instead of fresh? But I think it still would have been very bland. Im also not sure what the addition of 1/2cup butter adds to the sauce. It didnt blend well with the cream cheese, it was a just a pool of fat... I was smart enough to taste the sauce before I added it to the pasta and was able to ditch it and made a sauce basically the same but without the cream cheese and added broth instead of water for more flavor.

Delicious!... My roommate and I made this for dinner tonight and it was great! I did add broccoli but just because we love it, but it would have been great without it too! Thanks for sharing!

Absolutely delicious! An quick and easy crowd pleaser. I am sad because I don't have left overs. I think the only change I made was adding a bit more garlic (because I LOVE me some garlic) and instead of boiling water, I heated up chicken stock and poured that in instead. I also added a little more milk just to make it a little runnier than it was already. SO good! A recipe keeper and will definitely make it again!

WOW! This dish is amazing! My husband and daughter almost licked their plates. I love that it is simple and quick. I made this as our Valentine dinner and it made the night perfect. Thanks for the great recipe.

Loved this one!! Quick easy and ohh so good.. I cooked my shrimp with garlic and onion powder in some butter, and added a little salt and pepper to taste. My baby girl ate it and she is even pickier than me!! will probably add something green next time or maybe some sun dried tomatoes!

This was absolutely delicious! The only change i made was that I used canned white clam sauce instead of the boiling water. I can't wait to make this one again. Thanks!

Very easy to make. Tasted quite good. Took a few shortcuts. I didn't have any fresh mushrooms, so I used canned mushrooms at Step 3 and skipped Step 2 entirely. Didin't have the parsely either, just omitted it outright. I was a little concerned when it seemed I had melted butter with tiny pieces of fried cream cheese and garlic. But after the boiling water was added and stirring continuously, everything did eventually smooth out. I might try with a little less butter though.. I There seemed to have a lot left on our plates. Melted butter... sooo good, but soooo bad....
