    I followed the recipe except I added sliced green onions to the tomatoes that went into the oven. I rinsed the capers and thank God I did. Enough of their flavor comes through and I cannot imagine not rinsing them. Their flavor would have over powered the recipe and I love capers. I also put garlic in the pasta water. I really loved this simple but delicious recipe. One thing is that leftovers are not good the next day so eat all.

    I didn't use the capers, and I didn't have as many tomatoes readily available, but that's okay. It was still yummy and my fiance and I absolutely loved it!

    I took some suggestions from prior reviewers and didn't rinse the capers, added chopped garlic, used only 3/4 pound of pasta, and substituted basil for the parsley. I didn't have Italian bread crumbs, so I finely chopped some fresh herbs and mixed with the tomatoes. I topped with panko bread crumbs and thought I had the solution to getting some crunch when I put it under the broiler for a few minutes and got the crumbs very nicely browned. But the crunch disappeared in combining the tomatoes with the pasta. I drizzled on some high quality finishing olive oil when serving and that added some wonderful flavor. I think next time I'll leave the crumbs off when roasting the tomatoes, mix the tomatoes with the pasta and cheese (cheese first in a baking dish, then top with the crumbs, drizzle on some olive oil and broil until the crumbs get crispy. I think that would work to get the promised crunch as an added texture. I might also cut the pasta back even further to 10 oz.

    I totally loved it. I used parmesan cheese and because I didn't have capers, I made it without it. I am a vegetarian and it was a great dish.
    Adding cheese to the warm pasta was incredible.

    OMG! LOVED this recipe. Cannot see how some thought it was "bland". I did not have pecorino romano cheese, so I used asiago instead. Next time, I will use the romano. But, I think I will love it either way.

    Absolutely wonderful and flavorful! I added minced garlic to the tomatoes as well as sliced black olives. I think next time I may add fresh spinach!

    I have made this previously two time and really enjoyed it. Tonight I found myself short some tomatoes so went to the reviews to see what I could add. I did add marinated artichoke hearts, drained, and at the end threw in some arugula. I don't normally changed up recipes but this worked out wonderful and I would do the same thing next time. Also, thanks reviewers for saying to add the cheese before the veggie mix!
