I would make this dish again, but I would make a few changes. I would use less oil, cook the pasta for a shorter amount of time, and add some more seasoning.

Overall, this dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The pasta was overcooked, which made the dish mushy. I would recommend cooking the pasta for a shorter amount of time.

The zucchini and feta were a bit too oily for my liking. I would have preferred a drier dish.

This dish was a little bland for my taste. I would have liked to see more seasoning added to it.

I'm not a huge fan of zucchini, but I really enjoyed this dish. The feta cheese and penne pasta helped to balance out the flavor of the zucchini.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover zucchini. I always have a few zucchini in my fridge, and this is a great way to use them up.

I added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the dish, and it gave it a really nice flavor boost.
