4 Ingredient Pasta



Ingredients
pasta - anything you have will do
olive oil - just a drizzle
1-2 pints fresh tomatoes
1 garlic clove - crushed


Seriously how easy can this get?  Throw 1 or 2 pints of cherry tomatoes on a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper.  Roast for about 20 minutes at 375 degrees or until soft and slightly blackened.

Meanwhile the pasta is cooking til al dente.  Toss the pasta with the roasted tomatoes and a fresh crushed clove of garlic.  Sit and enjoy. x

    Made your pecan date truffles today - they are so good! My only problem will be to limit myself to only one after a meal! Will def. try this recipe too.

    Really enjoyed the closet post - so interesting. Kay

    as I comment on that beautiful pasta dish I am reading below what you say that I have always loved...
    "kindness is never out of style."
    and may I add... neither is simplicity.
    fresh tomatoes and pasta... YES!

    This recipe is right up my alley...simple & with ingredients one usually has on hand. I can see from reading the other comments that I need to look at some of your recipes I may have missed.

    OKAY, because I AM TOLD I AM BOSSY and I MARRIED an 100 percent ITALIAN I have to PIPE up HERE!
    When you cook the pasta you must add some rock salt.Palm of your hand!ALWAYS!!!!!!
    Second, once you drain the PASTA and put back into the hot pot you add olive oil to coat the pasta!Than add the tomatoes and stir..............
    YOURS LOOK DELICIOUS...........XX

      i always add sea salt to the water! i skip adding more oil to the pasta because the tomatoes already have the olive oil but that's me! and i'm 100% not italian:) xo

    Roasting the tomatoes makes all the difference...this would be a recipe that I could eat almost everyday!

    How do I find the pecan date recipe? I also roast cherry tomatoes (sun gold) and mix with pasta or zucchini ribbons I air dry for a day or TWO to get nice and CHEWY. No garlic. Too stinky. But lots of good Parmesan... Love when you post a recipe. Loved when you posted your daily lunch. Got so many GREAT IDEAS!!!

    The four ingredient pasta looks scrumptious !!
