This recipe is so easy you'll want to make it time and time again. Throw all ingredients into one pot, even the uncooked Pasta. All ingredients cook along with the pasta. And the really cool thing, in my opinion, is that there’s nothing exotic here. This is all stuff I always have on hand!
No Strain Tomato Basil Pasta
12 ounces pasta
1 can (15 ounces) diced tomatoes with liquid (Get creative and use seasoned tomatoes!)
1 large sweet onion, cut in thin strips
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 large sprigs basil, chopped
4½ cups vegetable broth (Not low sodium)
½ tsp. red pepper flakes
2 tsp. dried oregano leaves
2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
Parmesan cheese for garnish
Put the pasta, diced tomatoes, onion, garlic, and basil in a large pot and add the vegetable broth.
Sprinkle the pepper flakes and oregano over the top and drizzle with the oil.
Cover the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook covered for about 10 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes.
Cook off most of the liquid, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
You’ll want to stir the pasta several times to distribute the remaining liquid.
Garnish with the Parmesan cheese.
And here's a little from my latest erotic romance to spice up your night.

You had me at "even the uncooked Pasta."
ReplyDeleteNo mention of wine, though! Great recipe from an outstanding author! Cheers, Sam!
ReplyDeleteANYTHING that uses only one pot is my favorite. Can't abide all that clashing and clinking of an array of cookware - and then the cleaning up. This recipe is a lifesaver.
