    Excellent flavors and texture! I just adore risotto and when I saw this, made with pasta, I was instantly intrigued. I did break up the spaghetti, as others suggested, but only if half. Next time I make this, which will be very soon, I'll break it into thirds; much easier to stir that way.

    Really, really good. My picky 14 year old loves it and has for a couple years of making it. When she has friends sleep over, I usually fix it, and they like it, too. I got tired of the spaghetti snapping and trying to cook it with the pans I have, so I found cut spaghetti and it worked perfectly. Unfortunately, the two companies who made cut spaghetti quit making it, so I go to the Mexican section of Price Chopper and get a couple packages ofcut vermicelli for .39 cents a package and it works like a dream! No spaghetti popping out of the pan and landing on the stove or floor. I don't drink wine, so never had it, either, just used chicken broth or stock instead and it was just as delicious without the wine. I do have some white wine that I HAD to have for a recipe,so now, have to try it with the wine and see if it tastes any different or better. This is a keeper recipe, for sure!

    Leftovers the next morning topped with an over-easy egg are YUM-O!!! I made the recipe a little different. I drained a can of diced tomatoes flavored with basil and garlic and added the liquid to the broth. I added the diced tomatoes when adding the beans and also added a couple of handfuls of spinach just before the pasta was finished. This recipe was a winner! I did end up breaking some of the pasta in the pan while toasting, so next time I'll break it when I add it.

    This is a great recipe. I cheated and used frozen carrots. I didn't put them in till the end so they wouldn't be mushy.

    I didn't have a problem with the pasta in the pan, however, the Thyme was a little too strong for my liking. Next time I'll use less Thyme and add a little crushed red pepper. Overall, I liked it, plus, I saved a pot!

    This wasn't as good as I hoped it would of been. Mainly from human error though, my pasta may have cooked too long before the wine went in. I failed to find my corkscrew, it was MIA for at least ten minutes before I got the bottle opened. It was still good, but on the sticky/ mushy side.

    Very good! But you definitely need to break the spaghetti in half and watch the stock...it gets absorbed quickly. I had some extra on hand so the pasta didn't get too sticky. Will definitely make again!

    I LOVE this recipe. It smells so good when it is cooking and tastes even better. The consistency is so creamy. I can't stop eating it the night I make it, but the leftovers are even great! This is one of my favorite pasta recipes. I have a large pan and even when I break up the pasta, there are bits and pieces of pasta all over the kitchen. But it is definitwely worth it.

    I LOVED this recipe - I've made it a couple of times, and my husband gushes every time. I usually halve the recipe, because it does make a lot - more than the 2 of us need. Unless you have a great big pan, break the spaghetti...
