    This is a terrible recipe. The dish turned out monotone and flat. There is no depth of flavor. I am currently doctoring it with some additional seasoning and much more Parmesan. I wish I had some pancetta on hand because I think that would improve it greatly. I was looking for something to do with the leftover sweet potatoes... Hopefully, I find something else next year.

    This was absolutely the worst recipe I've ever tried! What a waste of ingredients. I should have known that the combination didn't jive! Beware of this recipe

    The flavor of the fennel goes well with the sweet potatoes and rosemary and not too overpowering. This is a creamy pasta entree that's also healthy.

    I liked this idea. I did not follow the recipe exactly (adjusted it based on other user feedback and what I had on hand but I liked the way it turned out, the combination of flavors and thought it was a very creative use for leftover sweet potatoes.

    This pasta was pretty good; all my dinner guests seemed to like it. However, you definitely have to be up for a sweet pasta dish.

    I've made this recipe twice for company - both with rave reviews. Highly recommended.

    The first time I had seen this show was the week before Thanksgiving. Believe it or not, I planned my menu around this concept of having leftovers that I could turn into a totally different meal. I did not have sweet potatoes, but used roasted butternut squash and used carmelized onions for the fennel. It was wonderful! My husband and daughters loved it and it has become a "do again" recipe. Our lives are nuts, and i must say Robin's concept of preparing things this way has been a real blessing. It's nice to have a variety of menu ideas that are not all slow cooker or require more time than I have on a weeknight.
