Reviews
I may have reviewed this recipe once before awhile back but I just made it again today and can’t say enough about how much my husband and I both enjoyed it. He isn’t as adventuresome as me when it comes to eating but he is a real fan of this dish. The lemon, garlic and Parmesan combination along with the natural sweetness of the peas and the freshness of the broccoli are a really winning combination. Bravo Ina!
Very easy and delicious. Great as a main course or a side dish.
Yummy and easy to make pasta dish. Love the fresh lemon flavor and the Parmesan adds just the right kick. I ate it as a meal but think it would be a nice side dish as well.
Loved this recipe, it was very fresh and light!!
Marvelous

I absolutely loved this and so did my family. So Easy and quick to make
Super Yum!!! I love this recipe. I made it exactly as written and it’s all gone. Everyone couldn’t get enough. Saved to my salads collection! Thank you Ina!
Phenomenal! I wouldn’t change a thing. The lemon flavor added so much. All ingredients were perfect. We could not stop eating this. One of our favorite pasta dishes for sure.
