This recipe is much like a puttanesca sauce but without the anchovies. It can be salty so be sure to rinse the olives and capers, especially if you can't find low-salt tomatoes. It's from a cookbook called "Pasta Light" which I've had for 15 years. I wanted to post it here to save it. My picky husband will eat this straight from the pan, before it even goes onto the pasta. Best served with "strand" pasta like spaghetti or linguine, rather than shapes. The recipe doubles well - I often double and freeze half.
