Fresh Tomato Pasta Salad

Collection: Vegetarian Recipes

Ingredients

  • Enough pasta for one (say, 3/4 to 1 cup dry)..I like rotini
  • 1 1/2 or 2 big fresh tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoon minced onion (red onion is good)
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1/2 to 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 to 1 tablespoon cider or balsamic vinegar
  • a few bazil leaves (opt)
  • plenty of black pepper
  • salt

Directions

Cook pasta. While cooking, chop tomatoes. Throw everything
else in with the tomatoes.

Drain pasta; add to tomato mixture.

The extra amounts of olive oil and vinegar are only if your
tomatoes are SO BIG that they need more flavouring..make
sure those tomatoes are nice and ripe.

Nutrition Info: For the smaller amount of oil, I'd estimate
it to be 320 cal or so.

Serves: 1

Preparation time: 10 minutes
