    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

    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 :-)

    GOOD LORD this recipe was good!!! DEFINITELY going into my regular rotation. Just fantastic! I added some chopped asparagus for a little more color and veggies and it was perfect!!!!

    Thanks for sharing! I plan to share with friends, family and coworkers. - 10/13/09

    This would also be good using shrimp and I always add a little lemon zest and or juice. - 9/12/09

    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

    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

    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

    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

    i thought this was great! I actualy was looking to find something with the ingrediants i had in the house, and used chicken instead, and also added a little thyme. It was incredible! - 10/3/09

    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
  • SILENTPAWZ
    This was fantastic! I would like to make this again and add a few extras like the shrimp and mushrooms someone else mentioned. As it was, it was fabulous and very easy to make. I will definitely try this again! - 10/3/09

    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
