Working Out the Quinques

For Pasta Lovers

I just made the most delicious dinner.  For those of you who love pasta, this is the bomb!  And very easy and very fast.

Pasta Pomodoro

 

Cook a 16 oz. box of pasta (mostaccioli or penne - I used mini penne), drain and keep warm.

 

Combine in a large skillet:

 3 Tbsp. olive oil

2 tsp chopped garlic

2 tsp dried basil (or 1/2 C chopped fresh, if you have it)

1 C. chicken broth

1 14.5 oz can petite diced tomatoes

 

Simmer 2 minutes, then thicken with a Tbsp cornstarch mixed with 1/4 C. water.  Salt and pepper to taste.

 (I also had 3 thin slices of prosciutto that needed a home, so I diced them and threw them in)

 

Put pasta in a pasta bowl and pour sauce over top.  Serve with parmesan cheese. 

 

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! 

 

Be thankful ~

This looks yummy. We eat alot of pasta, since it's cheap and we're poor. Ha. I'd never survive on one of these meat diets. We'd have to give up our vehicles and I'd have to re-learn how to cook.

I love pasta! I'll have to try this...with the prosciutto or some chicken thrown in. I'm weird about having to have at least the tiniest bit of meat with my meals.

Thanks for sharing-- having a tried and true recipe is such a timesaver!
