Ingredients

    4 oz. Barilla Plus Angel Hair Pasta
    1 cup Roma Tomatoes, diced
    3 Basil Leaves, chopped
    3 Cloves Garlic, minced

    2 T. Parmesan Cheese, finely shredded

Directions

Cook pasta per the instructions on the pasta container. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add garlic and sautee for about 5 minutes. (If the garlic starts to brown, reduce the heat to low). Add tomatoes and basil. Sautee for about 5 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar. Reduce the liquid on low heat. Serve half the sauce over half of the pasta. Top with half the parmesan cheese.

You can also add grilled chicken over the pasta, but this is not calculated into the nutritional information. If you use a different type of pasta, the nutritional information might be different.

    This was wonderful and fast! I added some onion and spinach to increase my veggies for the day. Unfortunately I did not have any balsamic. I am going to get some and make it again! Thanks for the recipe. - 9/1/09
