- 8 oz Whole wheat angel hair pasta
- 1 lb assorted heirloom tomatoes larger ones cut into 1 in pieces and cut large cherry tomatoes in half
- 3 cloves garlic chopped
- Small bunch of fresh basil
- Olive oil for drizzling
- 4 ounces Goat cheese optional
- Salt and pepper to taste
Start by heating up a good drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet. Add chopped garlic and allow to slowly caramelize.
Meanwhile, cook angel hair pasta in boiling water until al-dente. It cooks fast so keep your eye on it.
Once the garlic is beginning to golden, add tomatoes and roughly chopped basil. Season with salt and pepper.
Allow tomatoes to cook until they begin to break down a bit.
When pasta is done, use tongs to add pasta directly to tomatoes. Toss to combine.
Bowl up your pasta and drizzle with an extra turn of olive oil and top with small pieces of creamy goat cheese and more fresh basil.
