My family and I love this recipe, it has been added into the rotation of things we cook frequently. :) We make it without the tomato and canola oil though.

I made half the recipe, left out the tomatoes and made a tomatoe salad with a ving. sauce. Was a very easy, quick and delicious meal. Will make this again and maybe try it with shrimp too.

Loved this recipe, so easy and so good. I did add steamed broccoli for some veggie input and everyone loved it. No leftovers!

My boyfriend is a really picky eater, and he loved this recipe. It was simple, inexpensive, and very hearty. Used cheese tortellini and it turned out creamy and flavorful. Would def make again.

This is a great, quick dinner! I substituted frozen ravioli as I had no tortellini--still very good. I only used about 3/4 of the jar of Alfredo sauce though, even that was a lot.

I've made this per the recipe and I also served it at a family get together where I tripled it and made my own alfredo sauce. Big hit each time; my cousin's teenagers ate four servings. I got the alfredo recipe from http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Cookbook:Alfredo_Sauce
