This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I added some garlic and red pepper flakes to give it a little more flavor.

This recipe was a disaster! The sauce was too runny and the spaghetti was overcooked. I won't be making this again.

This dish was a little too salty for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll use less olives next time.

This spaghetti dish was a hit! The combination of olives, pine nuts, and capers was delicious, and the lemon-parsley sauce was the perfect finishing touch.
