SO SO GOOD! I used 1 zucchini and 1 yellow summer squash. I used one large tomato, then added a can of diced tomatoes (drained). I also added some sliced squid, which gave the dish another texture. Overall, absolutely delicious! You must not leave out the anchovies and anchovy oil. They make the dish! Didn't use the recommended Bucatini but rather salad macaroni, which is the same as bucatini only cut up into tiny pieces. Simply delicious!

I decreased the recipe for one person and I LOVED it! I used 1/2 cup sliced zucchini and 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes. I also used whole wheat penne pasta to decrease the calories which also resulted in 1/2 cup when cooked. I couldn't taste the anchovies which I love so next time I will use more than three anchovies. Make this recipe without making any changes first; you won't be disappointed. Will definitely make again!

This was soooo good that my husband told me I needed to get online right away and review it! It was delicious, light and healthy. I'm making it again next week! :)

This was a delicious dish. I didn't have anchovies, so I in place of that salty item, I used chopped green olives. They played nicely with the flavors! I also used a can of diced tomatoes in place of the fresh and it worked out really well. Thanks!

Great dish with great flavor. I substitued the zucchini with yellow and orange peppers since my boyfriend will not eat zucchini. I used a can of diced tomatoes instead of grape because its what I had, and I think it helped give it more of a "sauce" If your worried about the anchovies, just make sure to chop them up really fine...my boyfriend didnt even know they were there!

This is a very nice combination of flavors and definitely one I will try again but with the following changes: replace bucatini with pennete or fettucini and use less of it (I like a much better sauce to pasta ratio), add about 8 oz of tomato sauce to give the sauce some thickness but not too much more salt. Thank you for a great idea.
