Capellini Pomodoro

When I was younger I would go through phases of ordering the same thing whenever we went out to eat. For some time it was steak sandwiches, followed by Chicken Parmesan, and most definitely Capellini Pomodoro. This pasta is so fresh tasting and flavorful it is hard not to love it. Plus it literally takes 10 minutes to make, so if you are in a rush, make this!

1/2 a package of angel hair pasta
6 Roma tomatoes
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 an onion, minced
A handful of fresh basil, chopped or 1 tbs dry basil
A dash of salt and pepper
olive oil

Heat a little olive oil over medium high heat. Add onion and cook until soft. Meanwhile, cut tomatoes in half length wise and using a spoon, scoop out the seeds. Dice each half of the tomato. Add the tomato, garlic, basil, a little salt and pepper and cook until just heated through. Add the hot pasta to the tomatoes, drizzle a little olive oil over the pasta, and toss to combine.
