I am really enjoying the healthy recipe ideas that the Food Network is posting this month! I really enjoyed this dish. The lower sodium side of this dish doesn't bother me and I'm surprised that one review found it "bland." With the addition (per Ellie's recipe of capers, kalamata olives, garlic, crushed red pepper and freshly grated parmesan cheese the flavor was really tasty. I used 3 small anchovies (blotted off the extra olive oil - they melt in the pan rather than anchovy paste. I find arugula bitter too but not here, as it wilts and "melts" into the other flavors. I used regular whole wheat spaghetti. I will make this again. Also, thanks for supplying all of the nutritional info at the end of the recipes. It is a useful guide, as I'm using My Fitness Pal to track calories and nutritional info.

Very acidy. Arugula tastes bitter. Pasta tastes blan. I'll not make it again.

Really nice flavors, healthy, and so easy to make. Didn't have arugula so, I just used spinach. No capers....just not a fan of them. Will definitely make this again using the arugula and might try it adding shrimp.

I make this dish on a regular basis and I love the addition of arugula. Anytime I can sneak in a little green is fine with me.

Made this w/Barilla multigrain pasta, doubled the anchovy paste, and added some jarred tomato/basil spaghetti sauce to make it juicier. Will make it again>Thanks, Ellie, for another great & healthy recipe.

I am by no means an expert. With that said I loved the history with this dish, pronouncing it to my dearest, "Puttanesca darling, enjoy!" It was without a doubt delicious and oh so very easy - paired it with Zinfandel and honey you got dinner: Yum! and Yum again:

This dish is absolutely delicious! I did make a few substitutions...spinach instead of arugula and crushed tomatoes instead of diced. Use a good brand of crushed tomato it covers the pasta nicely. I also found out that the small amount of leftovers was even more delicious the next day. You could easily make this one day ahead!
