    We aren't big wine drinkers so we never have it on hand - what type of white wine would you recommend for this?

    @Ann Marie- Hi this is Chef Heather from Food on the Table. I would use a chardonnay for this recipe. But if you are not a wine drinker and don’t want to buy any just for this recipe then don’t worry. You can use any of these substitutes for white wine: chicken or vegetable broth/stock, white wine vinegar or cider vinegar, white grape juice or even just some water.

    Made this last night - I even had the husband go to the store to get some cheap dry white wine (try Gallo, it's like $5.99 for a whole bottle and not bad of a taste, either). I love that the feta takes on an alfredo-type sauce when it melts. This was delicious - I'm eating the leftovers for lunch at work right now!

    Very easy to make, and great flavor. The recipe I saw didn't call for wine, so I made it without it, still was good. I felt like the amount of pasta the recipe called for was too much for just 1 can of tomatoes, so I added another can. A lot left over but thats ok, because it was good!

    This turned out pretty well! Makes a nice, quick, week-night meal. I ended up adding some chardonnay to the tomato, spice, garlic mixture for some extra liquid. Also, I think "add the shrimp" needs to be included in step 4 (even though it's self-evident). :)

    @Lynne and Ann Marie- I apologize if there was some confusion with this recipe in reference to the user comments regarding wine. We recently went through and edited some of our recipes to be more user and kid friendly, per common requests from users. This is a nice flavorful recipe without the wine but if you would like to add some white wine to this dish for extra flavor then I suggest adding 1/2 cup in step 3 after the garlic has cooked. Allow the wine/garlic mixture to cook for 1-2 minutes before adding the tomatoes.

    Lynne, thank you for sharing your tips about adding the white wine. I am glad this recipe worked out for you, despite the confusion with the user comments and directions! Per your recommendation, I have added the shrimp to the directions in step 4 to make things more clear.

    I've made this recipe both with and without the wine. I did like it much better with the wine in. I had actually forgotten that it was a part of this recipe until the comments started showing up this week. I just knew I didn't like it as much the last time I made it as the first few times I tried it. Instead of changing the recipe and removing the wine would it be possible to leave it in the directions and label it as optional for those who choose not to use it?

  • Chef Heather (Food on the Table)
    Chef Heather (Food on the Table)

    Kristin, thank you for sharing your thoughts and suggestions! I agree that the wine should be listed as optional and have added it back to the ingredient list and directions as optional. As I mentioned in a previous comment if you do not want to use wine in this dish chicken/vegetable/seafood stock or broth or a little water from the pasta after it has cooked would be a great substitution.

    @Anonymous, for additional flavor try adding a shallot before you add the garlic and add wine or chicken stock. Reduce the wine/stock and you'll add another dimension of flavor.

    i used those little tiny shrimp, and i think it worked better than with "normal sized" ones. they came peeled and deveined and frozen in a 2 lb bag. i agree with kendra - it needs a little something. red pepper might do it.

    I added all the ingredients in their listed quantities into a recipe builder and the returned nutrional information came up more than twice the its shown here. I'm sure this is great, but one of the reasons I chose it was the low calories. Please update the Nutrition Information to reflect the accurate amount.

    We enjoyed this. Very similar to a recipe I made up. Tossed some fresh basil on top. Although I used extra diced tomato I thought this was a bit dry and made add more liquid next time. BTW although I did change the recipe a bit, I maintained similar ratios and came up with 667 cals per serving.

    I love feta as well, I sadly only had 4 oz on me at the time of making this. It was delicious! I really wanted seconds but I am trying to cut the carbs which means my 2 favorites pasta a potatoes. I used a regular cooking white wine I saw in some aisle at the grocery store. It was fairly cheap and still made the food taste great. I wasn't sure if the tomatoes needed to be drained or not. I added the juice but I am also a tomato lover and wouldn't have mind the juice or flavor.

    @Crystal- Yes, the tomatoes and the juices should have been added as the juices help create the sauce.

    Really, really good and really, really easy! As usual I used the recipe as a guideline and sort of winged it. What I changed: I used 2 pounds of shrimp, added a little butter with the olive oil, skipped the wine and threw the garlic in the pan with the shrimp, used a 28 oz can of tomatoes and passed the feta at the table. We are serious foodies and the flavor of this dish really surprised us, in a good way! Highly recommended!

    Made this recipe for dinner and it was very delicious and tasty! Was afraid that the pasta was going to be dry but it wasn't. I added cooking white dry wine since it was the only wine I had at the time, but I can't wait to make this dish again adding Chardonnay. Even my fiancé who is not a pasta lover, loved the dish!

    Tasty, but too many noodles for the small amount of sauce. If I make this again, I will drop back to only half pound of noodles. I also will not add the noodles to the sauce while cooking, but instead serve the noodles and sauce separately so each person can adjust how much sauce he/she wants on his/her noodles.

    I appreciate your reply and did calculate the data separately but when an item is presented at 1/3 of the true data I would think that you would change it to reflect something closer to the true number. Perhaps you could list an itemized estimate of the data and I can figure out where our calculations differ.

    Is it possible to use some sort of sauce (new or bottled) that I can use in place of canned tomatoes? Not a big tomato fan, but this sounds great! Has anyone tried it with a white wine cream sauce or anything?

  • Chef Heather (Food on the Table)
    Chef Heather (Food on the Table)

    Hi Shannon! You could simply omit the tomatoes, and leave them out of this recipe all together. If you wanted to add another veggie to this dish you could use some red bell peppers, artichoke hearts, or mushrooms. To compensate for the missing liquid the canned tomatoes would add to the sauce in this dish, add 1/2-1 cup vegetable broth or seafood stock, half and half or cream, or both cream and broth, or a few tablespoons melted butter. Let us know if you have any other questions!
