Excellent balance of flavorful (wine) pasta with contrasting white alfredo sauce with the blessed sliced green onions. If you have an otherwise beige dinner, check this out! I use sauces and dressings as an accent, using the least amount needed to set off the dish, so I didn't need to feel guilty. Still, I will experiment on ways to make a very tasty sauce but diminish the sinful elements. I had previously made Recipe #353717 #353717, but this turned out an even more intense deep burgundy. The liquid amounts are sufficient to cook the pasta; I used two $6.99/ 750-ml bottles of Australian Yellowtail Merlot, which left me 500 ml of nice drinking wine for my meal. By all means, keep the abundance of sliced green onions; they flavor the sauce and make this dish sing. The cost of the wine is the cost of garnishing; everyone needs to shake things up once in a while! Thanks for sharing this recipe, I shall definitely make this again! Made for Spring 2009 Pick A Chef.

Well I made this with a Concord wine that was undrinkable. My Boyfriend said “different� but later said he would probably be craving it in a few weeks. We decided next time to use a better wine and I’m sure it will be much better. We also have an allergy to onions so I substituted celery and added some mushrooms. Experiment was a success and the wine was put to good use. Thanks

I love cooking for family and friends. I especially enjoy baking...it is like combining art and science to create something extraordinary.
I am most known for making desserts like Recipe #336060. My pet peeve: when people sign-up to bring dessert to a pot-luck or dinner party and they bring something pre-made from the store. My friends and family now know to always let me bring the dessert. :)
I enjoy traveling and believe that one of the best ways to experience a culture is through food. I have lived in Germany, Spain and Switzerland, and currently live in the US.
My rating system:
5 stars - Excellent! Delicious! Could not be better...will make often.
4 stars - Very good! May tweak slightly.
3 stars - Good base recipe. Will need to tweak.
2 stars - Ok. Will keep looking.
