    Pasta Aglio e Olio with Tomatoes (Fried Garlic and Red Pepper Olive Oil Pasta)

    Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

    Easy Pasta Recipe

    These times call for simple recipes and comfort food. This is not the time to worry about shedding those extra pounds. Although, I will say I've been working out and walking more than normal. It's become a priority to leave the house to get fresh air, a privilege!

    After a nice walk, preparing simple dishes like this Pasta Aglio e Olio is exactly what we need. Pantry ingredients with a few fresh options creates not only a flavorful dish but something to enjoy as leftovers or even add in some chicken or tofu to complete the meal.

    What you need:

    • fresh cherry tomatoes
    • olive oil
    • Tagliatelle pasta (or your favorite pasta)
    • garlic
    • crushed red pepper
    • lemon juice
    • Parmesan cheese
    • fresh chopped parsley
    Olive Oil Pasta

    Process:

    Besides roasting the tomatoes and boiling some pasta, this dish is really ultra simple. Absolutely easy for kids to make and feel successful or in between working and getting kids setup with their homework. I think at this time we are all looking for easy shortcuts that are still packed with flavor and flexibility.

    My goal right now is to continue to bring you simple, pantry forward recipes.

    As always, I love seeing your creations. Please leave a review or share your dish with me on social media which lets me know what is working for you! You can find me on Facebook,  Instagram, Twitter and Pinterest. For more delicious recipes to your inbox, sign up for my newsletter!
