How was the nutritional information calculated when the amount of linguine is not specified? - 7/14/09

Sorry I forgot to include that info... it is 8 oz. of whole wheat pasta (uncooked) for the whole recipe, then divided into 4 servings. Hope that helps & hope you enjoy the recipe :-)

This was to die for. I added a few things like shrimp, green onions, and mushrooms. It looked and tasted like something from a fancy Italian restaurant! I will make this again and again and again!!!! - 4/12/08

Really, really delish! I made this for supper tonight, cutting the recipe in half for two. Very good, we both enjoyed it a lot. The scallops were nicely garlic-y, and although the sauce wasn't very "saucy", it was very flavorful, so I didn't have to put anything else on the whole wheat spaghetti! - 6/21/09

Very tasty. I would add another vegetable peas or broccoli next time, and 1-2 tsp of flour if you like a thicker sauce - 9/12/09

This sounds like a really good recipe, which I will try. However, my experience with scallops is that you don't have to "cook thoroughly"--in fact, the less time, the better. They can be easily overcooked and will get rubbery in texture. A few minutes on each side is all it takes. - 8/2/09

I've made this twice and LOVE it. I sometimes vary what it's served with, bread or rice instead of pasta. The one thing to be sure of is to try to brown the scallops before adding them to the liquids, otherwise they can end up a touch rubbery. - 10/7/09

This was great. I added italian spices, leftover asparagus, canned artichoke hearts, zucchini, calamata olives, just a little of each, not overwhelming, and used shrimp instead of scallops. OMG it was sooooooo good! - 10/14/09

I love this recipe! I've made it twice, but instead of using scallops which were too high in price I've used cod cut into large pieces about the size of large scallops. Once eaten w/ healthy pasta and once w/ brown rice. Delicious! thank you! - 9/29/09
