Simply fantastic


Sorry the pic isn't more glamorous. :)

This is thin spaghetti with olive oil, garlic, parsley, basil, and grape tomatoes. It's very simple and easy, but also tasty. Cameron had some too and he loved it and made lots of yummy noises. I'm not gonna lie, that makes me feel really good.

Make pasta according to box directions or to al dente. I salt the water and add a splash of olive oil so it doesn't stick together. Right before your pasta is done get a small pot and cover the bottom with olive oil. Put in a heaping teaspoon or two of garlic. Toast the garlic a little till it's a smidge of brown color and is aromatic. After you drain your pasta put it back in the hot pot and pour desired amount of oil and garlic over top. Toss. Add your tomatoes. It's better if they are sliced so you get the juices in there. Then add basil and parsley. I just put a layer over the top and toss again. After you plate it up make sure you add Parmesan, that really makes it super good. The tomatoes are a choking hazard for smaller babies, so I didn't give Cam any of those.
