tasty little side dish

the dish was really simple to cook. I followed the cooking instructions and found that the pasta was cooked to our liking. I'm a huge fan of pesto so I quite enjoyed the flavour of this dish. The portion size though was just barely adequate for the two of us. I received the product for free as part of the Family Rated Club.

Passes for pesto pasta bit not with flying colours

I received this product free to try and review thanks to Family Rated club. #gotitfree. First off,the packaging was convenient and instructions were easy to use. Also cooking time was very minimal. The taste was ok. For pesto I did not find it garlicky enough and found I had to add some seasons . The pasta i found a
Little chewy. This product passes as a side however feeding a family of 5 I would need to make a few pouches . For a single person it is the perfect portion size.

A tasty pesto side dish

If you’re looking for a quick and easy to make snack or side dish, be sure to try Knorr Selects Roastred Garlic Pesto with Volanti Pasta. The taste of garlic is subtle; add some fresh basil and Parmesan for a bit of extra flavour.

definitely tasty

I received a package of Knorr meals from FamilyRated for a review.

The Roasted Garlic Pesto was good, but definitely not my favourite of the bunch. This is only because I am not the biggest fan of pesto.

this is great for those days when you come home late from work and need something on the table quickly. from start to finish it took about 25 minutes which is a great time saver when you have no leftovers in the fridge and need something quickly - I found this with all of the Knorr meals I've tried.

The only reason I am not giving this 5 stars is, like I said, I am not a huge fan of pesto. but if you are, this is definitely a game changer!

Don’t follow the instructions.

When cooked as per the instructions, the pasta was still very hard. So when I made Knorr Selects Roasted Garlic Volanti I added extra 1/4 c water, covered the pot for the first 5 minutes, removed lid, cooked additional 5 minutes. Removed from heat and left for 5 minutes to rest and thicken. It’s perfect.delicious, creamy, saucy and aggressively savoury.

Satisfying and Delicious

I wasn't sure if I would like this at first because I am not a huge pesto fan. However, the pesto was not overwhelming and the garlic really balanced it out. It was pretty heavy as a side as it is a pasta dish and very filling, but it would make an awesome meal if you added some chicken to it.

It was quick and easy to make. I received this product for free, but I would definitely buy it. My husband and one year old both loved it.

easy side dish

this was a easy, filling side dish to complement our dinner one night.
loved how garlicky it was- we are big garlic eaters and this was delicious!
the instructions were easy to follow- and the dish was ready quickly! (8 minutes!!)
but the sauce never really thickened as much as i thought it would/or would have liked it too- it stayed a bit on the soupy side of things.
i would definitely try it again, as it was a side the whole family enjoyed (including my son who doesn’t like pasta)
but i would use a little less water- in hopes of getting a thicker sauce.

i got this for free as part of the family rated club.

Yummy.

This was easy to make - just add water and cook. The flavour was great. The pasta was a nice shape and covered in wonderful garlicky pesto. I did find the portion in the bag enough for one person only so one would need a bag per person.But, I loved the flavour.

Amazing!

i got this pasta for testing purposes. i love pesto and i am so glad i discovered this meal. it doesn't take so much time to prepare and the pasta will cook perfectly. It tastes so delicious and the pesto sauce is nice and creamy. I highly recommend it.

Gobbled it up!

We were a little hesitant in trying this one- as we were not a fan of the other one with the similar pasta from Knorr. But my family devoured it all, and loved it, especially my husband. He had seconds and he isn't a fan of pre-packaged food. #gotitfree
