Notes:
Delicious and totally healthy
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
Healthy harvest (or any whole grain) rotini
1/2 cup olive oil
1 1/2 lbs of fresh unpeeled tomatoes
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 bread crumbs
pinch of oregano and garlic
(optional dash of red wine vinegar, more or less to taste… adds a kick)
sauteed baby bella mushrooms
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Choose a shallow baking dish that will just hold tomatoes in a single layer. Cover bottom of dish with the olive oil. If using roma tomatoes, cut in half; if round tomatoes, quarter. Dip cut surfaces in the olive oil, then place in pan cut side up. Combine remaining ingredients except pasta and sprinkle over tomatoes. Bake 40 minutes in middle of oven. Tomatoes should be very soft. Meanwhile, cook pasta and drain. Put in bowl and pour tomatoes and oil over, tossing to break up tomatoes. Add sauteed mushrooms. Serve with extra cheese if desired, and perhaps some chopped fresh parsley for color. Serves 4.
Sometimes I lightly bread some chicken breast with bread crumbs and add a little bit in.
This recipe tastes like pasta sauce, except it's fresh tomatoes, not jar sauce. You can add less parmesan cheese and bread crumbs to cut calories if you'd like. It's delicious!
