Delicious, amazing, easy, and fast! Even my husband who doesn't like artichokes, loved this recipe. I was looking for an easy pasta recipe that was outside of what I typically make. This was perfect--adding it to my regularly used recipe collection!

My family loved it! Except for using grated parmesan instead of shredded (only because I had no shredded on hand), I made the recipe as written and it was awesome. Can't wait to try it with the shredded parmesan. Very flavorful--especially for a recipe that is so quick and easy. Will definitely be one of our family's regulars!

This was amazing! I made it with one package of cheese tortellini and one package of chicken tortellini and it was fantastic.

Nothing bland about this recipe. Used half the olive oil and very little of the reserved artichoke liquid. Very good.

I wasn't pleased by how this dish turned out. I think the biggest reason I didn't like it was the amount of oil involved. Overall, the flavor was decent if a little bland, but the dish was drenched in oil.

Thanks for the recipe... sorry it wasn't my cup of tea.

This is a wonderful recipe!! I love the marinated artichokes as they added a delightful "zing". I also let the tomato sauce simmer on low for a couple of hours so the flavors of the fresh herbs and tomatoes could 'marry". I love the idea of adding a nice Italian sausage to this dish.
