Excellent! Only change I made was to sub fat free 1/2 & 1/2 for the whipping cream and I also left out the bouillon (it's just too salty for my tastes). Neither of the changes took away from the wonderful basil sauce! Will make this again and again! Thanks!

    Oh my gosh, this is sooooooo good! The only substitution I made was milk for the whipping cream since I didn't have any cream. I served this over mashed potatoes and it was delicious; I will try it with the pasta next time. I made your Fresh Green Beans Delux (Fresh Green Beans Deluxe), what a meal!

    Inez, you've gone and done it again! This is a tremendous dish, the sauce is so creamy and the basil flavor really stands out! I followed the recipe exactly and wouldn't change a thing! This one will be made often by me!
