    WARNING DO NOT FOLLOW THE RECIPE WRITTEN IN THE "Weeknights with Giada" cookbook!! The recipe calls for 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice instead of the online recipe which calls for 2 tbsp! HUGE difference and results in an nearly inedible dish. My husband and I made this tonight expecting another delicious dish from Giada. We have had great success with all th recipes we have tried of hers but this was an epic fail and waste of money. I can only suspect that they adjusted the recipe AFTER this book was printed. The lemon absolutely overpowered and ruined the dish. Wish we had heckled the web for reviews before we made the recipe because it ruined our dinner and we needed up throwing money and time in the trash. VERY FRUSTRATING! Perhaps we will try this again using the 2 tbsp of lemon juice instead of 1/2 cup. I also think mascarpone would make this a bit creamier and richer than the creme fraiche.

    absolutely delicious. This has the best flavor blend of ingredients, just enough of everything...really no need to adjust a thing - 'bland' ?? absolutely not - there is nothing bland about this dish....garlic, seasonings, zest, cheese - plus texture that is very satisfying ... this is a must do - a real keeper - don't let this on slip by - try it

    I thought that this recipe was rather bland.

    Don't pass over this recipe because of the brussel sprouts! It is delicious, and doesn't taste of brussel sprouts! My husband and I couldn't get enough of this meal (and neither one of us likes brussel sprouts, and went back for seconds. We then made it again 2 days later! The creme fraiche is a wonderful addition, making it smooth and velvety... and how can you go wrong with freshly grated cheese? This meal is perfection, and you won't even miss the fact that there's no meat!

    Love this recipe. My kids helped me make it and they both (ages 6 and 4 loved it too. I read the current reviews and some were saying it was boring so I doubled the amount of garlic it called for and used cream cheese instead of creme fraiche. We will definetely be making this one again!

    We loved it--even our 2 year old! This was easy to make (bought shredded brussels and sliced mushrooms to save time. Great flavor. A good way to sneak in brussels sprouts for kids. Omitted the lemon zest and juice since I'm not a fan of it in pasta. The recipe is going into our rotation.

    This was amazing, even if you aren't a big brussel sprout fan!

    I usually love all Giada's recipes but this one missed the mark for me. The flavor was ok, but the texture was terrible. Will not be making this one again

    Like other people said, I am not a fan of brussell sprouts. But i loved this dish. My husband did not. He only likes spaghetti with tomato sauce on it.
    I will make it again for me. very, very good.
