This recipe was a bit too complicated for my taste. I think I'll try a simpler recipe next time.

Overall, this was a good recipe. It was easy to make and the flavors were good. However, I think it could be improved with a few changes. I would add more vegetables, such as zucchini or bell peppers, and I would also use a different type of cheese,

This was a good recipe, but I think it could be improved with a few changes. I would add more garlic and oregano, and I would also use a different type of pasta, such as penne or rigatoni.

This dish was a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less oil next time.

The eggplant was a bit tough. I think I'll cook it for a longer period of time next time.
