Pasta with Fresh-from-the-Garden Sauce, Green Salad, Garlic Bread


I found this recipe for a no-cook pasta sauce on AllRecipes last summer. I was so excited because it uses so many fresh ingredients from the garden! We absolutely love this meal, and I'm happy that it's that time of year again.

Pasta with Fresh-from-the-Garden Sauce
5 tomatoes, seeded and diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 c fresh basil, chopped
1/4 c olive oil
salt to taste
1 lb angel hair pasta
1/3 c Parmesan cheese

Combine tomatoes, garlic, basil, and olive oil in a non-metal bowl. Stir in salt. Cover with plastic wrap. Allow to sit at room temperature at least 2 hours, or as long as 10 hours. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain. Pour uncooked sauce over hot pasta and toss. Pass cheese at the table.


Sides
green salad
garlic bread
