Summer Tomato Pasta Salad
We’ve waited all year for the sweet fruit of the vine-ripened tomato. So, tonight we feature it in a flavor explosion of a no-cook tomato sauce. The sweetness of the tomatoes is blended with fresh chopped garlic, new sweet onion, fresh basil, extra-virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Just assemble it and let it stand for about 20 minutes, then add the remaining fresh vegetables. Splendido!
