Made This for my fiancee and I and we ate a whole pound of pasta by ourselves and I have been wanting more all day. I made a few changes. I used a can of drained diced tomatoes, angel hair pasta, some fresh basil, and some fresh grated pamesean cheese along with the other ingredients. This would even be good without thwe extras, I just really wanted tomatoes in it. Out of this world. Thanks..

Not a good kid recipe because of the spicy red pepper flakes (but omit them and the kids will eat this up). I've added quartered canned artichokes and black olives. Also try shaped pasta, adds a little excitement to the meal. Very delicious!!

This came out very good, I added broccoli to it and it added a little more flavor as well as what is already coming from this. Will make again.

This was very good. It was so simple but quite tasty. The garlic turned golden in about 5 minutes, though, not 15. I used very wide (about 1 1/2") flat pasta, and it was rather classy!

Really good! I used this as a side dish to "Famous Butter Chicken" as another reviewer did, and the spiciness complimented well. I used a fresh cayenne pepper, but kept the recipe the same otherwise.

Mmmm... This was a favorite growing up. Whenever we were nearing a shopping day my mom would make this. Of course my Dad used to pretend to put the red pepper flakes on my plate. But I still swore I tasted it. Thanks for reminding me of an old favorite.

This is simple yet tasty. However I found it a tad dry and would probably add more olive oil next time. You can easily add your favourite accompaniments by cooking small pieces of veg/meat/seafood in the sauce before tossing with pasta.
