Almost Perfection
Just had this for the first time and it was goddam delicious. Like something an Italian grandma would make.
However, the recommended 1.5 cups of boiling water is WAY too much. I’m always cautious of FDF companies’ recommended amount of water, and I always hold back a half cup (thinking I can add after the fact if needed - but you can’t take away).
This thing was soup all the way into 15 mins of hydrating, and I only used 1.25 cups of water of the 1.5 they suggest.
Please modify the language on the packaging. 1 cup of water would make this a creamy ass bag of Italian goodness.
As is, it’s delicious soup.

Concur with Jolly
Delicious meals...always looking forward to dinner time when out on an adventure. Like Jolly posted, 1.5 cups of water is way too much. I'm using 1.25 and that's about perfect for me.

Wow. Wow. Wow again.
This was so tasty and delicious! I love eating pasta dishes with red sauce while on trail, but it’s been a very long time since I had an Italian sausage red sauce meal. This one is phenomenal. I found the 1.5 cups of boiling water was perfect, but needed to let it reheat for 15-16 minutes. I added a cheese stick and some hot sauce and WOW, incredible! Bonus that it’s 800 calories. Will (and have) ordered more!

Freaking Amazing
I recently tried this dinner and was blown away. This has to be on the best backcountry meals I have eaten in a long time. Try this meal if you have not!!!!

The best flavour so far
I think this is the best flavour of the current selection. I'd also recommend 1-1.25cups of water.

Savory Sausage Flavor ~ YUM
I agree that 1.5 cups of water results in a soup, but a delicious soup, and I enjoyed it! I imagine it would be comforting on a cold night. If you don't want it soupy it seems like people like it reduced to about 1.25 cups. I'll try that next time. Anyway, this pasta dish has a traditional homemade taste with distributive fennel-y Italian sausage. It's more flavorful than other backpacking meal pasta dishes I've had. It will definitely be part of my regular rotation.

My all time favorite
I had this 3 times on my JMT thru hike this year and enjoyed it by far to anything else I had. How companies get the water recommendation so wrong is beyond me. Maybe altitude? This was not as bad as other meals where you knew right away the water was too much but I agree that 1.5 cups is too much. I went with ~ 1.25 cups on the first meal(based on other reviews). Then I back down to a little over 1 cup and that was perfect. I used a Modified FedEx bubble envelope as warmer koozie.
Buy it you will not regret.

Tasty!
I've really never been a fan of any backpacking meal companies...until now. I find finishing this, as well as other Pinnacle meals, quite easy to do. The taste and texture (I prefer the recommended 1.5 cups of water) is enjoyable from start to finish. Not too salty. Big calories, protein, and fat will keep you satisfied and fueled up for sleep and recovery. If you're going to spend money on freeze-dried meals, spend a bit more on Pinnacle. You won't be disappointed.

So good I'd eat at home!
Just got back from a backpack trip and this was dinner on night one. It's by far the best backpacking meal I've had, you could tell from the depth of flavor that is is made with care. This will be my go to from now on, could even eat multiple nights in a row!
I don't tend to measure water exact for meals and pour to cover and add more after a few minutes so I can't speak to the review about too much water.

Great simmer
This was my first Pinnacle meal. Followed the simple instructions and had a great, flavorful meal. Ordering more meals from Pinnacle.

BACKCOUNTRY BLISS
Italian Sausage and Zesty Tomato Sauce with Farfalle Pasta, and Parmesan is by far my most favorite freeze dried meal of all time.

Surprising!
This was fantastic! No mushy pasta or weirdly spicy but flavorless sauce and there was generous amounts of sausage. Recommend waiting longer than suggested for dehydration even for al dente, but this was really good.
