“Tastes great! I was using a 16 oz package of dry rice linguine noodles so I did the recipe for 8 and then doubled that. I made it last week and only doubled the recipe and it didn't have enough sauce. This was the perfect amount of sauce to noodle ratio. I use” — a cook, 5.0★
“Ok, having made a double batch of this recipe for the 4th time, I need to leave my review. This saves me so much money when I have a hankering for take out! It's so tasty and a great way to use up my local farm share of cabbage and carrots. We use frozen lo me” — a cook, 5.0★
