Quick Pasta with Tomatoes and Arugula (Rocket)

Sunday, October 4, 2009


1 lb. dried pasta of your choice (I like spaghetti or penne for this)
8 ripe tomatoes, chopped
6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 handfuls of arugula or basil
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp. salt
Red pepper flakes, to taste
Grated parmesan


Place a large pot of water on stove to boil for pasta. Add a few tablespoons of salt. In a small pan over low heat, cook garlic in olive oil until just lightly browned. Combine tomatoes and arugula in a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt and red pepper flakes. Pour over garlic and olive oil. Toss with cooked, drained pasta. Sprinkle with parmesan.
