I agree with the other reviewers who said this dish is a bit bland. I would definitely add more garlic and red pepper flakes next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my dish turned out nothing like the picture. The asparagus was mushy and the sauce was watery.

I found this pasta dish to be too rich. The ricotta cheese was a bit too heavy for my taste.
