Ingredients

  • 2 pounds tomatoes (we used a mix of cherry, grape, and campari, halved or quartered, depending on size)
  • 4 - 6 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Coarse salt & black pepper
  • 1 16- ounce package pasta
  • Thinly sliced fresh basil (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400˚F.
  • Place tomatoes and garlic on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season liberally with salt & pepper. Toss to coat the tomatoes.
  • Roast the tomatoes in the oven for 15 - 20 minutes, or until tomatoes have softened and juices are filling the pan.
  • While tomatoes roast, cook pasta according to package directions in a large pot of salted water. Reserve about 1/2 cup pasta water before draining pasta.
  • Toss pasta with roasted tomatoes and add pasta water to loosen sauce, as needed.
  • Adjust seasoning with salt & pepper, and garnish with fresh basil before serving.
