Very, Very good. I sauteed some diced ham for a little salty bite before adding the veggies. If I had pancetta at the time, I would have used that. I also used leeks instead of onions and added roasted garlic. Sooooo perfect. My Fiance's new favorite dish!

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!
