There's lots of garlic flavor in this filling side dish. I like it with grilled chicken but it works wonderfully with nearly any menu. -Brenda Nolen of Folsom, Louisiana

Really good garlic flavor, altogether a great dish. Only downfall is that the sauce gets thick fast and the noodles become really sticky fast...but definitely not a deal breaker!

My husband and I loved this. I would have given five stars but the sauce gets too thick after it cools. But overall this was great. Will be making again.

We didn't really care for this dish. There wasn't anything special about it - just kind of blah tasting.

We love these! I add a bit more milk and a bit less cream cheese, so the garlic flavor stands out a bit more. They make a nice side dish and go well under several saucy entrees.
