    Good
    I didn't have any tomatoes so omitted them from recipe but added 1/2 cup chicken broth & 1/4 cup white wine for liquid. Worked out well & was super tasty. - 9/24/13

    Very good, but I had to make so many substitutions! Used broccoli, italian sausages, organic spelt pasta, marinara sauce, left out garlic (wasn't time), left out beans... and I had taken the time to cook the beans too..just forgot to add them as I was very rushed at suppertime. Will try again! - 2/25/10
