My boyfriend says, “In a hamburger?”
Yummmm. I want to go eat tomatoes now and I’m not even hungry.
I don’t know that I’ve got a favorite, but Rachael Ray’s got an easy recipe for a ricotta pasta with grape tomatoes, peas, and basil. It’s pretty simple–boil the pasta, saute some chopped onions in a little olive oil and toward the end toss in a cup of peas and a handful of chopped parsley, then mix that with the drained pasta and a couple cups of ricotta and Romano (or Parmigiano or the like), a little butter, and finally add in a cup of halved grape tomatoes and a generous handful of shredded basil leaves. I use whole wheat pasta and cherry tomatoes (I’ve used larger tomatoes too and just diced them) and whatever hard cheese I have on hand. It’s a basic enough recipe that it’s easy to alter and amounts aren’t terribly important. And it’s delicious warm or cold!
