  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 1 lb fusilli or 1 lb angel hair pasta

Method

  • Combine bread crumbs, parmesan, and salt and pepper to taste. Spoon mixture evenly over tomatoes.
  • Roast mixture for 30-40 minutes or until mixture is bubbly, browned, or slightly thickened.
  • Meanwhile, in a large pot of salted water, cook pasta according to package directions. Drain well.
  • Add pasta to the tomato mixture and toss with fresh chopped basil.
