    Smells great, tastes better

    I received this side dish free to test and review. It was quick and easy to make in less than 15 minutes. It smelled great as it was cooking and tasted great when it was finished. It was flavourful and saucy. Every piece of pasta was covered with sauce. The pasta cooked up to the right texture. It wasn’t too soft or undercooked. I would buy this product in the future.

    2nd one from family rated!

    My boyfriend was the one to actually try this one out. He forgot to make food for work the next day and I suggested to make this one. He said it tasted as good as instant pasta would taste but the cook time was longer than what it said on the package. Would he buy it again? Probably if he was in a rush! Thanks again family rated for this chance to try it! #gotitfree

    Good tasting quick dinner

    I received this product to try out for free. This was easy to make and surprisingly quite tasty as well. I used this product as a "base" and then added tomato, onion and cooked chicken to to make it a complete meal. I do recommend this product overall because it make dinner prep such a breeze and easy. Next time I will stir in some cheese or add jarred sauce (pesto, alfredo, or more pasta sauce) and try adding different meat. I think the possibilities are pretty much endless!

    Knorr is known for side dishes

    This did not disappoint. It was easy and fast to prepare. Taste was great and easy to clean up. A great week night side dish. We will buy this product again

    Meal time made easy.

    On the days when you don't know what to have for supper and you're looking for something fast and easy Knorr Selects make a perfect meal. Since this was very basic and simple I decided to add sauteed shrimp, sausage and hot peppers to make it my own. I enjoyed the tomatoe base and the garlic and basil wasn't overpowering. In fact I love garlic and the next time I make this I will most likely add some fresh garlic.

    Even though I liked it with shrimp and sausage next time I will probably try it with chicken and sausage. I would probably find it a bit bland on its own and the pasta is al dente which I like. It might not be a homemade meal but it's great when you're In a pinch.

    None for us, thanks

    I received this for free to try.

    Similar to other tomato-based pasta side dishes Knorr has offered in the past, this one was a miss. The tomato taste is too artificial and really threw off the whole meal.

    My family and I are taking a hard pass on this.

    Wow!

    After receiving this to test I can say I’m hooked. The ease and convenience is great. It took next to know effort to make and the flavour was fantastic. The texture was al dente. It worked well as a main course but could easily be subbed in as a side dish to a meal.

    Ok, but not something I would purchase

    I liked the ingredients and the taste was ok but not really something I enjoyed. I found there was a flavor that overpowered everything else.
    I think the seasoning was a bit overmuch and could have been toned back a bit.
    Despite following the directions to a tee, my sauce also did not thicken very much, leaving it very runny such that it didn't really coat the pasta. I even heated it again to allow some water to evaporate but no dice. I had a different flavor of this same product which thickened beautifully so it may have just been a one off for this flavor.

    Overall, I wasn't a big fan and doubt I will purchase this again.
