Fresh Tomato Pasta
There are flavors that stick with you when you first eat something memorable. Out with my mom for lunch, I decided to try this fresh pasta, and the flavors were so delicious I knew I had to try and recreate it for myself at home.
Fresh tomatoes, mixed with salty olives over pasta somehow seems like the ideal summer dish. The bright colors match the bright flavors, making this recipe as fun to eat as it is to look at. The fact that it all comes together quickly is a bonus, allowing you to savor dinner as well as time saved.
