This dish was delicious! The Swiss chard added a nice bitterness that balanced out the sweetness of the tomatoes. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

Overall, this dish was good, but not great. The Swiss chard was a bit too overpowering for my taste. I would have preferred a more balanced flavor profile.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I would have liked more garlic and chili flakes in the sauce. The Swiss chard was also a bit too tough.
