    This was delicious! Beautiful and great combination of flavors & textures. I I added a few red pepper flakes crushed into the oil before adding the garlic. Next time I will chop the swiss chard a bit and roast the cherry tomatoes charred and burst already before adding them into the dish. Thanks Giada for another winner.

    I loved this recipe. I was able to clean out my refrig with a lot of the ingrediants and substitute with others. The lemon zest makes this recipe! I used feta cheese and cut down on salt because feta is so salty. I also used 1/2 elbow and 1/2 penne pasta because I had 2 open boxes I wanted to get rid of.

    I watched as this was made on TV and the amount of salt put on the greens as they were cooking really astonished me.
    I see in the recipe that it is Kosher salt that is being used.

    Is Kosher salt not as strong as regular table salt ??

    You certainly could not have put the handfuls of salt on the greens that I saw if you were using regular iodized salt.

    Can anyone give me an answer?
    Thank you,

    This pasta salad dish is easy to make and very very tasty. I packed it for lunch and offered my co-workers a taste...they all loved it and wanted the recipe! I'll add more greens next time, but the lemon zest is really a nice finish.
    I'm lucky to be in a city that has a wonderful Italian specialty store, so I was able to get fresh ricotta salata (at a great price.
    Thanks Giada!

    I loved everything about this recipe, it was simple, the tomatoes just burst in your mouth and my husband loved it, will definitely become a regular for us. I like the idea of adding chicken to it, I'll have to try that next time - Thanks Giada!!;

    I recognize that this is a fairly basic recipe that didn't require a whole lot of thought to write, but it was still delicious. The lemon zest is what really made it so don't skip it. I couldn't find ricotta salata, so I substituted feta and it worked great. This is a great weeknight recipe or good for easy entertaining.

    This dish was so easy and delicious! My entire family loved it including my 14 months old. It's a great way to combine protein and vegetables and great flavor. Giada surprises me every time and this time this recipe will become one of our regulars. Thank you Giada! You're the best!

    My daughter is a competitive swimmer, and when her team hosts a meet I like to help out by cooking for the hospitality room for coaches and officials. We were in the middle of a meet, I saw the recipe on Saturday and made it for Sunday. Everyone loved it and asked about it. The next time we host a meet with a Friday night session, I'm thinking that I will make it again and add simply seasoned grilled chicken breasts to create a lighter entree! Thanks, Giada - your spinach and pancetta strata has also been a hit in the hopitality room,
