1/4 cup Olive oil, extra virgin

Salt and pepper to taste

8 oz Dry pasta (Angel Hair or Rigatoni)

1. Boil pasta noodles until soft.

2. Heat olive oil, tomatoes and garlic until tomatoes are soft (appx. 3-5 minutes). Add basil; heat about 3 minutes. Serve over Angel Hair or Rigatoni pasta.

Cook's Notes

Some ideas to add to the sauce for a variety of flavor: feta cheese, cooked chicken, onion (red or white). Serve with garlic bread.
