My husband and I find ourselves adding olives and capers to foods that are missing something. We enjoy eating olives but the kids, not so much. After my daughter was finished eating her pasta I wasn't surprised to find a small hill of olives at the bottom of her bowl. Hey, she tried it. I served this pasta with a fresh salad with orange segments. Who needs chicken when you can have tangy deliciousness in a bowl all by itself.

2 tablespoons drained capers
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
