    This was so good! Next time I would probably make it without the almonds, but only cause I don't really like them! It was a nice change from spaghetti.

    Nice work Giada!! Again you have created a unique dish out of kitchen staples. The blend of the almonds, basil and lemon were fantastic. I used leftover tenderloin in the recipe both times and it was a great!! Now i have a recipe to make a Take 2 out of Filet Mignon!!! Thanks for keeping my cooking interesting!

    Although the meat is a bit expensive it is well worth the price! The seasonings are simple and the meat just melts in your mouth.
    My husband was making some homemade salsa and grilled a few too many roma tomatoes so I added 3 to the sauce.
    Also, I had some fresh oregano and thyme on hand so I put them in with the basil.
    Delicious meal!!!!

    Amazing!!! So delicious and a wonderful twist on spaghetti. My little kids loved it too and one is a very picky eater. We will make this again and again.

    This recipe is so simple my 6 year old Nephew can do this. Simple, easy, fast recipe that tastes delicious. Note: Be sure to reserve the pasta water...just in case the cheese and sauce are too thick. Reminder: it can be served hot or at room temp. No need to reheat....you won't have any left overs. Loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I've made this recipe for two parties in the past week. Guest count was over 15 each. The pasta was served along side other dishes....this was the only dish that was gone before the desert was brought out. Most of all...others have asked for the recipe. Good job, Giada
