This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I might have added too much salt when I was seasoning the eggplant sauce. Otherwise, it was a pretty good recipe.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The eggplant sauce was very heavy and the rigatoni was a bit too al dente. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I might have added too much red pepper flakes to the eggplant sauce. Otherwise, it was a pretty good recipe.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The eggplant sauce lacked flavor and the rigatoni was overcooked. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
