This was very easy to make and the flavors were fantastic. Next time I would add more veggies and a little more ricotta.

needs more salt than she calls for, but otherwise a really great dish. I added more veggies to the mix too!

I made this for my husband despite his insistence that he hates anything with lemon and he loved it! I couldn't find whole wheat linguine, so I used whole wheat spaghetti instead. I anticipated that this might make it a little harder to evenly distribute the ricotta, so I reserved some extra pasta water (on top of what the recipe suggested and added about 1/4 cup more to facilitate mixing. This recipe was great for a weeknight meal...So easy to make! The lemon makes it very light and I loved the sweetness of the tomatoes. I did use a little more ricotta than the recipe called for (I couldn't resist and next time I would probably add more green beans and tomatoes because I thought the ratio of pasta to veggies could have been better. Definitely adding this one to the collection!

This is not a keeper in our household. Very bland...I added extra lemon zest, extra garlic, extra pepper and still nothing exciting. My husband added cayenne pepper and still not impressed. The dish looks good, but no taste.

The recipe looked great on TV but I will have to agree with the review above dated 08/06/07 "Can't be same as on TV." The recipe as written has too much pasta and not enough vegetables. I would suggest using only half the amount of pasta called for in the recipe. With that adjustment made and an increase in the ricotta cheese there is hope for this recipe.

Cooked it twice so far, even better warmed up the next day.

This is a great dish for summer. It's light and refreshing. I love the fresh green beans paired with the tomatoes. The lemon zest definitely adds just the right amount of added zip to make the flavors come through in the sauce.

This was fast and easy to make and I absolutely loved how pretty and healthy it was. I am a runner and felt that this was the perfect combination of carbs, protein and fat. Thank you Giada!

Made this as an vegetarian alternative to the normal spaghetti and meat sauce. Was very good, I used whole wheat spaghetti and frozen french style green beans. The tomatoes get nice and warm and pop in your mouth! Great healthy alternative for dinner!
