I'm not a huge fan of mascarpone, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I'm glad I did! The mascarpone added a subtle creaminess to the dish without being too heavy.

This was a quick and easy weeknight meal that was also delicious. I used whole wheat pasta and added some grilled chicken to make it a complete meal.

I love the combination of lemon and basil in this pasta dish. It's so refreshing and summery. The mascarpone adds a nice creaminess that balances out the acidity of the lemon.
