    I made this for a party of 15 people & it ended up being plenty of food w/leftovers (I did make a 4th sauce, a meat sauce. The gorgonzola was the biggest hit. I don't like sage & didn't have any fresh herbs besides basil so I used a little bit of dried oregano instead.

    I read a review that said it was hard keeping everything straight while making all 3 sauces at the same time. I knew that would be an issue for me too so I made 1 sauce at a time.

    I ran my immersion blender through my tomato basil sauce...I like a smoother texture to my sauce.

    Because I was having so many people over, I didn't want to be cooking the day of the party so I made the gorgonzola & tomato basil sauces the night before & then warmed them up in crock pots. I made the parsley pesto about an hour before the party started.

    The tomato basil sauce is much better the next day & the day after. The gorgonzola sauce was my favorite.

    I made these three for a party I threw - there were 20 people there. I made this, a California Cous Couse salad and some Rosemary chicken breasts. Was plenty of food for the crowd!

    Tried the sauces exactly as written. Instead of pasta of any form...I used the sauce on ravioli. Tremendous surprise. Will use same sauce on lasagna. Should be delicious! Annie,Fremont,CA

    I made the tomato-basil sauce tonight- so tasty, easy and I had plenty of leftovers for another easy weeknight meal this week! Can't wait to try the other two sauces!

    The pesto sauce was soooooo easy to make and it was good. The pasta bar was a great idea - I used it for a Las Vegas themed New Year's Eve party!

    I made the tomato basil sauce tonight and it was delicious! I may never buy jar sauce again. The only change I made was instead of using crushed tomatoes, I used one 14oz can of tomato sauce with the 14oz can diced tomatoes.

    The entire dinner was a huge success, they loved the Gorgonzola Cheese sauce. I kept with penne for the pasta for the Tomato-Basil and the Parsley Pesto, but felt that the Gorgonzola needed a little color and variation to fill out the table, so I substituted in Spinnach Fettucinni instead, it was great! I do like the idea of adding shrimp to the gorgonzola to help cut the strength of the cheese a little,or even just to add even more color to the food, but it was still wonderful, and HEALTHY. Keep the wonderful recipes coming!

    I made these recipes for a party of 20 people. Everyone seemed to like it. I do have to say that making three dishes was a lot of work to keep my eye on everything. I followed everyone's advice and used less Gorgonzola. I also used Gorgonzola spread because my store didn't have any other kind. I would heat the pesto sauce a little too. It was too cold even when mixed with hot pasta. Overall everyone like the pastas.
