Roasted Tomatoes Over Pasta

Looking at this list of ingredients I thought to myself, "I don't know about this, seems too simple." But MAN OH MAN was I wrong about that! Not only is this an incredibly easy dish, its so tasty! Using common pantry ingredients only makes it easier to throw together!


Roasted Tomatoes Over Pasta
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 pint grape tomatoes
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 Tbsp olive oil
1/4 C breadcrumbs
1/4 Cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Salt and Pepper, to taste
Handful basil, chiffoned
1/2 lb. thin spaghetti

Heat oven to 400 F. In the bottom of a casserole dish drizzle one tablespoon of the oil. In a small bowl mix together garlic, bread crumbs, cheese, salt and pepper. Slice tomatoes in half and place in casserole cut side up, top each slice with garlic-breadcrumb mixture. Drizzle another tablespoon of oil over the top. Roast in oven until breadcrumbs are toasted and tomatoes let out some juice. Meanwhile cook spaghetti according to box directions. When tomatoes are done toss with spaghetti and basil, add additional olive oil if the pasta seems dry. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
