This was very bland. I had to add several other spices and even at that 3 out of 4 of us didn't care for it. I've tried other flavors of the Recipe Starters and like them, but I won't be buying this one again.

This turned out great!!! The best thing was it froze well too. My hubby and I can't eat all at once and love things that freeze. Delicious.

Write your review here...WOW! easy,easy, easy. Great for a meal when you have to rush home and don't know what to make. I would agree just a little more spices or garlic but i will make sure to keep a can of this in my pantry.

Put this in the crock pot while at our bowling league. Chicken was moist and tender and shredded easily however, the recipe was very bland needed salt and pepper. Next time will add other spices.

I made the Basil Parmesan Chicken Pasta according to the label instructions. Have to say, my husband and I found it kind of bland. No depth of flavor. I ended up adding more garlic, oregano, basil, salt and pepper. Maybe kid friendly but not that great for us.

Very easy and this recipe turned out great! My modifications: started with frozen chicken and cooked on high for most of the time (3-4 hrs), used less cream cheese (and it was still plenty creamy), did not shred the chicken, and served over bowtie pasta. It yielded plenty of sauce. It was great and I'll make it again.

I just tried the Parmesan basil cooking sauce and LOVED it! If I had any other type of comment, I would probably make 12 oz of the fettucine next time. Eight ounces didn't seem like enough with so much sauce...but it was definitely delicious!
