If you've grown a bunch of yummy tomatoes (or a friend has given you some or you've even bought some at the store)...here's a great recipe I got from The Sisters' Cafe:
Doesn't this look fresh and delicious!!!
Fresh Tomato Basil Pasta
2 C peeled, diced tomatoes (2 large or 4 smallish ones)
...put in boiling water for 30 seconds to peel
1 T chopped fresh basil
1-2 cloves garlic, minced (I used 4...but they were smallish and we like garlic)
1/2 t salt (kosher? but I didn't have kosher)
fresh ground pepper
Stir together and let sit on counter for a few minutes while you get the pasta cooked...
6-8 oz fresh angel hair pasta
parmesan cheese (shredded)
So easy...and SO GOOD...I made it again tonight and sauted a couple of strips of bacon to mix in so it's sort of carbonara (ish)
