Spaghetti with fresh Tomatoes





This is just about my favorite way to have Spaghetti and it is a great option for Meat free Monday.


Ingredients:
1 lb Spaghetti

1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes

1/2 small onion

3-4 cloves of garlic

Olive Oil

Salt & Pepper


If you like your pasta really 'saucy', go for it, double the tomatoes, onion, garlic, oil and seasonings or simply reduce your Spaghetti to 1/2 pound.

Preparation:
Cut all of your tomatoes in half and put them in an oven safe pan. Chop your onion and garlic and add to the tomatoes. Drizzle a good amount of Olive oil on top of all this and season with Salt and Pepper. Now make sure to give it a good toss, before you put it in the oven, so everything is coated in Oil and seasoned. Stick your pan in a preheated 350 degree oven and get a large pot of water going on high heat. Make sure you check and stir your tomatoes, every so often, since you want them broken down, sweet and gooey, but not
superglued to the pan. Once your water comes to a rolling boil drop in your Spaghetti and cook until they are tender. Depending on how temperamental your stove is, your tomatoes should be done right around the same time as your Pasta. Toss your Pasta with the tomatoes and VOILA, you've got dinner. Enjoy :)
