Preparation
- Step 1
Cook the penne in boiling salted water and drain when al dente.
- Step 2
Pour the oil into a large serving bowl and add the penne. Toss and add the tomatoes, basil and garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
This does not need cheese, but some people like it with freshly grated Parmesan.

I doubled the tomato, basil and garlic and used 13 ounces of pasta but still felt the pasta/ingredient ratio was too high. Regardless it was very delicious and simple to make with ingredients at hand
