    Cherry Tomato & Basil Pasta (Vegan & Oil-Free)

    Recipe:

    Ingredients

    Main Ingredients
    16 oz or 500g whole-grain linguine
    5 cups or 700g ripe plum or cherry tomatoes
    1 medium red onion
    6 cloves garlic
    1 cup fresh basil
    1 tablespoon balsamic glaze
    Spices
    dried oregano
    fresh cracked pepper
    sea or kosher salt
    Optional Ad-Ins
    1 15oz or 400g can of white beans
    1 cup pitted kalamata olives
    Instructions

    Fill a large pot ¾ full with water (with an optional pinch of salt). Place over high heat and bring to a boil. Add your pasta of choice to the pot, turn down heat just a little to avoid overspill. Cook to al dente, according to package instructions (it can vary depending on the type of pasta). Set a timer so that you don't overcook the pasta.
    While the water is starting to heat up, begin heating a heavy-bottom, nonstick pan. Peel and slice a medium-sized onion into strips. Add them with a pinch of salt to the skillet so that they start to sweat out.
    Peel 6 cloves of garlic. I like to roughly chop 4 of the cloves and use a Microplane to grate 2 of the cloves. You could also use a garlic press.
    When the onions are translucent, turn the heat down to medium and add to the garlic to the skillet. Stir to combine. Keep a close eye on the garlic so that it doesn't burn. Let the garlic sear for 1 or 2 minutes and then add ¼ cup of the hot pasta water to the skillet.
    Wash the tomatoes and add to the skillet whole. Add an additional ¼ cup water to the skillet. Let the tomatoes soften up (3 to 4 minutes). Use a tomato masher to gently press the tomatoes so that they "pop" and release thier juices into the sauce.
    Season your tomato sauce with pantry spices. (I recommend 1 tablespoon dried oregano, ½ teaspoon salt (optional), and fresh cracked pepper.) Tear or chop half of your basil leaves and add to the sauce. Add the balsamic glaze. Simmer 2 to 3 minutes longer and then remove from heat.
