I liked this one, but my boyfriend wasn't too impressed. The taste was maybe a little bitter - perhaps I just bought the wrong bag of snap peas... Actually, the leftovers tasted better than the original meal - let it sit a while for a more infused taste.

Awesome! My husband and my 3 year old loved it! Don't leave out the lemon zest though. Wouldn't be as good without it.

This was a quick and easy recipe for dinner. I did what a few other people recommended and added a bit extra dressing. Used whole wheat noodles as well and it came out great. I'd make it again- would also taste good with green peppers, mushrooms, maybe even some tomatoes. Yummy!

Didn't quite have that punch I was expecting. Probably wouldn't make it again.

Excellent! Everyone in my family enjoyed this recipe. They thought I worked really hard to make this. I will make again when I invite friends over and serve with a great white wine.

VERY GOOD! I HATE TO COOK , THIS WAS EASY TO MAKE, THE ONLY PROBLEM WAS FINDING THE SALAD DRESSING. (TWO STORES) I THINK THE TEENAGERS LIKED IT , OF COURSE THEY WOULD NOT ADMIT IT , THEY JUST DO NOT LIKE NEW THINGS! THANKS KRAFT FOODS! :)
