I did like it very much. I left you 5 forks . :>)
I hope you will try one of my recipes also. Take care...and thanks for the ww's recipe. I eat everything but use WW's points program!


At the start you have the recipe for the pesto right? Does that make the 4 cups you are calling for at the end? Confussed here, blonde moment!


I can't wait to make this!!! I don't eat cheese so I will skip that part but sounds delish!!


This sounds very good! I don't know when to add the pesto sauce? It doesn't say. I am also wondering what asiago is? I am sorry I'm not familiar with what this is. Please let me know so I can make this dish, which sounds really Delicious!


4 CUPS PESTO SAUCE???????? that doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me; please clarify!!!


I want to make this, but have the same question about the 4 cups of pesto sauce, is that from a can? Thank you!
