A good solid pasta dish. I made it vegetarian, and left out the shrimp, using 12 oz. of mushrooms (I could have done more). The amount of oil and of pesto were just right (it looked like a lot, but it really was perfect). The only suggestion I have is to order the ingredients as they are used in the directions, and group the pesto ingredients under the header "pesto" for ease of following the recipe. Thanks for this creative dish!

    Really liked it! Used Rotini (which I think is much more fun to eat) instead of linguini, and for the mushroom, chopped portabello. Also since I ran out of olive oil (yikes!) used grapeseed oil, which was just fine. Topped it with lots of chopped fresh italian parsley & basil. Perf!

    I can honestly say this is one of the best recipes I've had in a long time. If I could give it more than five stars I would! For one thing, it was easy and quick to make but tasted and looked like you'd spent a long time on it. I would definitely serve this to company. Also, I've made lots of pesto sauces but the sundried tomatoes and hazelnuts gave it a special touch. Finally, it reheated well and was even better the next day for lunch, after the flavours had some time to sink in. A lovely dish in every way.

    The innovative tomato-hazelnut pesto is the star(5 of them) of this dish! A complexity of ingredients, that both blend and offset each other, resulting in a layering of flavors. I also sauteed the shrimp after cooking the mushrooms, it makes the dish even easier and the flavor works better with the pesto. Chicken would work easilly as well if you don't like/can't eat shrimp. My only thought is that the ingredients should be listed in the order they are used. Thank you for this wonderful dish and you have my vote as the #1 recipe!
