This was so good. I used rel garlic instead of the powder, but everything was the same. We will be making this over and over.

This was really good. I changed a few things; used fresh tomatoes and added some spinach. I used oregano instead of basil (didnt have any). The grocery store didnt have whipping cream so I used whole milk...it didnt thicken up well but next time I'll use the right kind. Thanks for the recipe it kind of reminds me of Chili's Cajun Penne Pasta.

FANTABULOUS!!!! This dish was sooooo good I have to give a play-by-play. I added 1 lb of halfed whole white button mushrooms. For the sundried tomatoe I went to my freezer and grabbed a few of Mirj's "Oven-dried tomatoes" (which I have freezer bags full of) instead. The only other thing that I used that was a first for me was the cajun seasoning. Ironically, I had just purchased Pampered Chef's Cajun Seasoning. I doubt this had anything to do with it, but I have never used a pre-mixed cajun seasoning before. I layed a bed of pasta on a platter and poured the sauce over it all and served it "family style." We could have NEVER guessed what we were about to experience. Honestly, with the exception of a straight-out alfredo, this is the best pasta sauce I have ever had. The flavors just dance around in your mouth, not too overpowering, but they let you know they are there. The entire meal my husband and I were scheming up different ways to make this recipe and we both agreed that we would like to try it with shrimp and also do just a veggie-version with lots of mushrooms, yellow/red/orange peppers, etc. We are no food critics...but to us...this dish IS restaurant quality and is earning a spot in the front of the pasta section of my cookbook!!! Thanks, Lorac, for this OUTSTANDING recipe!

I made this recipe exactly as posted only I doubled everything (I used 3 cups of cream). Quick, easy, with wonderful, spicy flavor. This could be served with no hesitation to guests. Next time, I will use only 2 cups of cream while doubling all the other ingredients. All my family loved it. Can't wait to make it again.
