This is very quick to put together. I did add quite a bit more wine after adding the cream since it got very thick. It was quite plain so I added a bit of cajun seasoning. Love the crunch of the pecans. IMO this would not serve 6 sauce wise. I used maybe 3 ounces of linquine and there was just enough sauce with the added wine. Made for PAC Fall 2009
