    Fantastic Taste

    This is a nice addition to the Knorr Sidekicks. Loved, Loved the aroma and the taste. The pasta came out perfectly,
    al dente and not gooey. I love most of the Knorr products and this one definitely hit the mark.

    It's okay

    I wasn't the biggest fan of this one. I was hoping for a more garlic flavour but it fell flat in the pesto. I did try this with no additional ingredients but maybe if added with Chicken it would be more tasty.

    Nice side dish

    I got this product complimentary to try in exchange for my honest opinions.

    I love garlic pesto pasta so this was a nice surprise to see. I found the portion size to be a little small to share with a family so you'd need to purchase 2 packs.

    The flavour itself is really nice. The garlic isn't too overpowering at all and doesn't have that fake garlic flavour that you sometimes get from a powder made sauce.

    The noodles cooked up really nice and didnt get mushy. It's super quick and easy to throw together with some chicken or whatever you'd like to have.

    Not for me

    The Knorr Selects Roasted Garlic Pesto with Volanti Pasta was the first side dish in a pouch we tried that didn't have milk in the directions. It wasn't my favourite. The directions were easy to follow and the dish had a lot of aroma to it. It was a little watery for our liking, but that could have been user error! The noodles cooked up perfectly, as usual with the Knorr side dishes, but I wasn't a fan of the taste.

    Another tool for my dinner side dish arsenal.

    Another great alternative for side dishes! I love that the flavor was a little more elevated than the normal side dishes in a pouch. The ahape of the pasta made it fun for my daughter to eat as well! It did need an extra flavor so I added a dash of salt and pepper.

    Tasty, but not mind blowing

    I #gotitfree from Family Rated and decided to make this on a very busy night at home on my own. It took 8 minutes to cook and 5 minutes to rest and thicken the sauce. This is a lot like the Knorr Sidekicks but I found the quality about the same. The only difference I noticed was a new shape of pasta and a different flavour of sauce - this is a bit more gourmet than the existing sidekicks, but remains a bit lackluster. Personally I would use dry pasta i have on hand instead and maybe buy a pesto sauce in a jar that would be a bit more rich in flavour. I would recommend this if you're not very good/confident with cooking and need something pretty foolproof! It definitely looked nice on the plate.

    20/20

    Received this to try for free and loved the ease and speed of preparation. Size was perfect for more than a side for my young daughter and I. She absolutely loved it and gave it a 20 out of 20

    Pesto Love

    This was my favorite of the three flavors I was sent for free in exchange for a review. I love pesto and this was exactly what I hoped. U added some shrimp to make it a full meal. Quick, easy, and yummy!! Totally will buy again.

    Average packaged meal

    Nice to introduce some new flavours to packaged meals as I’ve been buying the same ones for a while now. My daughter didn’t like it much but my husband and I enjoyed it.
