Ingredient notes
- Extra virgin olive oil: Use a good quality cold pressed olive oil. You will not cook this oil. You will want to taste the bright, sometimes pepper, olive aroma.
- Spaghetti: Only use from the box and cook at Al Dente.
- Garlic: The freshly chopped garlic offers the best aroma, but the chopped garlic also works. Jarred has only a less sweet, slightly bitter aroma.
- Reds: Use any red you like, enough for about 2 cups. Dice in small pieces with bite dimensions.
- Fresh basil: Cut the basil leaves fresh or sliced into ribbons. Stack several fresh basil leaves on top of each other, then rotate the long bouquet and cut it into slices and voil – perfect basil strips.
Toma Time!
Any type of garden variety tomatoes would work in this recipe, but the fresher and more aromatic. You cannot make mistakes with a few good inheritance tomatoes here or with a few big succulent beef.
3 or 4 tomatoes on vines are a good option, as well as 3 to 4 tomatoes rom. Or you can even reduce half a 1 grape or cherry red painting. Different varieties of tomatoes will all produce a slightly different aroma, but any tomato will work.
Easter options
This recipe requires spaghetti pasta, but you can use any other type of pasta. Other pasta options that would work well this recipe include angel hair pasta, shells, penne pastes and linguine.
Add vegetables
If you want to add additional nutrition to this Easter vessel, try to add in some steamed vegetables. The asparagus and spinach are both great options. You can easily steam the asparagus in the microwave in a steam bag and you can find them even packaged in the grocery store. The spinach can be thrown even without cooking.
