    This is a super easy quick meal! I added some onion, red bell pepper and zucchini. I served it over penne pasta for the kids and they cleaned their plates.

    This recipe was really easy to put together and tasted very good. I highly recommend it. Calamari is so inexpensive that it's a cost-effective, time-efficient, and fancy meal all in one.

    I'm glad I read the other reviewers' comments and used pasta sauce (I used Classico Tomato & Basil instead of just tomato sauce -- would have been too bland. Be sure to use a good wine that you like to drink! I used Chardonnay, which I just wanted to get rid of, and it came through in the flavor of the stew -- I won't do that again... I ended up adding fresh oregano and more garlic. I didn't have red pepper flakes on hand, so used a few spashes of LA hot sauce to give a bit of zip, and that worked out fine. I added a seafood mix and escargot too, but think maybe it competed a bit much with the calamari, so will make it "pure" next time. This is very good, and I will definitely make it again.

    I didn't realize till I opened the package that my fish guy forgot to put tenticles. He gave me all tubes! Still turned out real yummy tho.

    I also want to try her fried calamari recipe too!

    I ADDED SHRIMP AND FRESH OREGANO. REALLY GOOD. I SAW GIADA MAKE THIS AND SHE USED BOTTLED SPAGHETTI SAUCE SO THE RECIPPE'S MISLEADING AS IT CALLS FOR "TOMATO SAUCE". HAD I NOT SEEN THE SHOW I WOULD HAVE USED REGULAR OLD TOMATO SAUCE AND IT WOULD HAVE DEFINITELY BEEN A MISTAKE UNLESS YOU PUT IN ALL YOUR OWN SPICES. I USED CLASSICO WITH ONION AND BASIL.

    This recipe produced a great winter dinner. I used 28 oz of Cento crushed tomatoes because my squid came out at 2.5 pounds and I wanted to make sure I had enough liquid. It was perfect. The crushed red pepper made the recipe. I added finely grated parmesan cheese on top and it was terrific. I had no idea that calamari was so affordable. I live two miles from the ocean but don't use calamari that much. I might have to start using it more! This recipe is a winner.

    This was a fantastic, quick meal. It took about 15 minutes total, including prep time. I used 1 lb each shrimp and calamari because I didn't know if my 3-year old would eat the calamari. He LOVED it. Will definitely make this again and again. (I used Classico Organic Tomato, Spices, and Herbs pasta sauce
