I was disappointed with this recipe. The pasta was overcooked and the sauce was bland. I won't be making it again.

This dish was a little too salty for my taste, but I think that's because I used a store-bought pizza sauce. I will try making my own sauce next time.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The sweetness of the tomatoes and the saltiness of the cheese are a perfect match.
