Did I really go the whole month of August without posting a new recipe?! Wow! That just tells you what we all ate over here.... oops! We were home very little and gone a lot! Plus add moving into the mix... Buffalo Wild Wings & Qdoba Mexican Grill we hit often! Yum!
Our new neighbor has an abundance of tomatoes that he needs to get rid of before they go bad. He came over yesterday afternoon and told us to come pick some. We picked about 5 big ripe good looking home grown tomatoes!! Home grown tomatoes just taste so much better/different then store bought!
We had a very late supper and I was craving the fresh tomatoes so I whipped this together and it was so good and I made it up!!! I didn't follow any recipe!!! Aren't you proud!!? : )
Fresh Tomatoes & Pasta
2 big ripe tomatoes, diced
Salt & Pepper, to taste
Italian Seasoning, to taste
2 green onions, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
handful of fresh Italian parsley, chopped
handful of fresh basil, chopped
linguine pasta
Bring a pot of salted water to boil and add pasta, cook according to package directions.
Chop up your tomatoes and put in a pan over medium heat. Salt & pepper to taste. Add Italian Seasoning, green onion, and garlic. Stir and cook for a few minutes. Add in tomato paste, stir. When sauce is at a simmer and looking yummy add in your cooked pasta, parsley, and basil.
Tip: If you add your pasta to the sauce while it is still on the heat... it will soak up the juices and have so much more flavor!! Also use fresh herbs... you will love it!
