I used lemon-pepper seasoning and dried dill. This is okay but not a lot of flavor. Could double the sauce as it didn't cover the linguine totally. Worth trying again but using the fresh dill or tarragon to see if it gives the recipe more flavor.

I was wondering the same thing as leodebram. Even the desserts did not have sugar content. I use Splendor in my baking and, if needed, dinner.
