I had a container of cherry tomatoes that were on their way out. Not usually one to waste good produce (I had been picking eating out and delicious holiday leftovers over salads this week...ahem), I decided to make a simple pasta sauce. This would also be good with chicken or Italian sausage, and I'll add fresh basil and grated parm next time I make it.
1 container cherry tomatoes (9 oz.), quartered
2 Tbsp. olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tbsp. red wine
10 Kalamata olives, halved
1/2 c. penne pasta
Italian seasoning
Trader Joe's Everyday Seasoning
Salt and pepper
Saute the garlic in olive oil. Add tomatoes and smash. Add red wine and olives (and a little olive juice). Cook down. Season to taste with Italian seasoning, everyday seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add cooked penne and a touch of pasta water. Top with fresh parmesan and basil.
