Easy, quick & delicious. Serve alongside anything or just have some crusty bread. Yum!

1 lb. cooked pasta - you pick
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
4 medium sized fresh tomatoes, chopped/diced
4 Tbsp. minced garlic - or more to taste
1/2 cup or more to taste grated Parmesan or Romano - you pick
1 cup loosely packed fresh basil
Freshly ground black pepper
Kosher or sea salt

While cooking the pasta, in a pan heat the olive oil, sizzle the garlic for a minute, add the tomatoes, sprinkle salt & pepper on let this cook on simmer, stirring occasionally while pasta is cooking.

Drain pasta, place back into pan and then pour the tomatoes over, mix, sprinkle on the cheese & basil; mix well. Add pepper & salt to taste - more pepper the better!
