Recipe #333 Basil Spaghetti with #334 Cheese tomatoes

Real Simple has this as one recipe, but i am behind and the count down to May 31st is approaching rather quickly! Will loved the spaghetti and said it is such a great summer pasta. I am sure we will make it again. He is not a huge fan of tomatoes so I don't think we will be doing that too much! I highly recommend making this meal with as much freshness as possible! The tastes are so amazing!



You need:
Half a box of spaghetti noodles
handful of fresh basil
a couple leaves of oregano
3 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
3 cloves of garlic
grated parmesean

  • make noodles according to package directions.
  • cut up garlic and add to a small sauce pan along with olive oil and red pepper
  • heat for a couple minutes then take off heat.
  • mix in with drained noodles until they are evenly coated
  • stir in torn basil and oregano, along with a bit of fresh, grated parmesan
for the tomatoes...
you need:
4 roma tomatoes
shredded mozzarella (fresh would have been nice but I was out!)
grated parmesan
  • turn on broiler
  • lightly coat a foil lined baking pan with olive oil
  • arrange sliced tomatoes on the baking sheet then top with the cheeses
  • broil for 3-5 minutes
  • put on top of spaghetti and enjoy!
