The flavour was nice, but even with the 1/2 cup of pasta water it was still extremely dry. I think next time I will reserve more water or try to make a sauce to go with it.

YUM!!!

I used whole wheat pasta and 1/2 arugula because I only had 1 1/2 cups spinach. I am used to the lemon/cayenne/spinach combo from other things, but combined with the tomatoes and beans is amazing! Definitely a favorite pasta recipe. Thank you for sharing!

I agree with kraftya, I loved the taste that the lemon added to it – it was nice – but subtle enough that it didn’t taste like a lemony pasta. I did add chicken (for my husband). I doubled the recipe because we like to have leftovers so we had a pretty large amount left…and my husband ate every last bite for every single meal the next day! Score! Thanks for sharing!

I like the fresh taste the lemon zest and juice gives, as well as the kick of the cayenne. The added Parmesan cheese mixed with the pasta water gives it a slightly stringy, but wonderfully gooey, sauce. Definitely not plain or average. I will be making this dish again!

It was a nice, light way to prepare pasta. I forgot to reserve pasta water, so I dissolved a chicken bouillon cube in 1/2 cup water instead. Other than that, I followed the recipe and we loved it!

I didn’t use beans because I didn’t have anything, still good without it. I added one onion, that I sauteed in olive oil first. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
