This was so delicious. I used the linguine noodle. My daughter asked if I would make it again tomorrow! Will definitely make again soon.

Mmmmmm, good! Everyone loved it! I also used linguine noodle, and was fairly generous with the broccoli. I'm still thinking about it today, it was that delicious. The sauce is what pulls it all together and makes it outstanding.
