I followed the recipe exactly, but my pasta rustica didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. The pasta was a bit overcooked, and the vegetables were a bit bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This pasta rustica was a bit too salty for my taste, but other than that, it was very good. I would recommend using less salt than the recipe calls for.
