"I made a vegetarian version of this dish (omitted tuna & used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth) with whole wheat penne and it was just fantastic! The sauce is spicy and thick and is delicious with the mushrooms and olives. I will absolutely make this again, thanks Giada! ""

"I expected to love this dish but unfortunately both the flavor and appearance were only so so for me. ""

"Yet again Giada delivers with a simple, flavorful, and delicious recipe! I folded in even more fresh spinach and although I am a garlic lover it was indeed a bit strong so I will likely use 2 cloves next time, all in all a wonderful dish that I will definitely make again. ""

"Great flavor and texture! Agreed that feta works nicely in this dish but I prefer the ricotta salata which is typically available at Whole Foods. ""

"Deliciously indulgent dish, the pesto alone is fantastic! ""

"The polenta was a nice addition, I enjoyed the thickness of the broth with the veggies but in flavor this one fell a bit flat for me (although the next day the flavor did elevate a bit). ""

"Loved the unique use of avocado and fresh lime in the pesto, and paired with the more traditional ingredients of arugula and basil just delicious! I would however have preferred a different nut over the sliced almonds so I think I will switch to pine nuts the next time I prepare this dish. ""

"What a fantastic vegetarian dish, healthy but filling and delicious! "
