It had a very dull taste and was not very good.

This recipe is good AS LONG AS you follow another reviewer's suggestion. Rather than using the italian seasoning, use 1 - 1.5 pkgs. of Good Seasons Italian Seasoning. (I only use 1 pkg myself.) I made it per the directions the first time around and didn't care for the dish at all. However, making the substitution the 2nd time around maked a WORLD of difference. This is one of our favor dishes now!

Very thick and bland sauce. Added chicken, more broccoli and still had too much sauce. Needs more seasoning and pasta water to thin it out a bit.

Overal not a bad Primavera. Makes more sauce than is needed, so we poured the sauce on top instead of mixing it all together. Also it was alittle bland but I can't think of anything to add to jazz it up. We will try it again if I think of something.

My family enjoyed this recipe however it is not your typical creamy sweet alfredo sauce. I will make this again but will add a little sugar and garlic to the sauce.

Very good but, very thick and creamy. I added 1/4 cup pasta water to thin it out. I also added chicken to make it more filling. Overall good recipe

Very good, but very creamy. I used 1/4 cup of pasta water to thin it out some. I added some basil, diced chicken, and fresh minced garlic instead of garlic powder. The seasoning packet would also be a good idea. As a whole very yummy

It had a bland taste - if I ever make it again I might add italian dressing?

The sauce was not consistent, and the dish did not reheat well.
