Title: Angel hair with balsamic tomatoes
 Categories: Italian, Pasta
      Yield: 1 Servings
 
      1 ts Minced garlic
      1 ts Olive oil
      5    To 6 Roma tomatoes, chopped
      3 tb Balsamic vinegar
           Salt    & pepper to taste
    1/4 c  Chopped fresh basil
    1/2 lb Angel hair pasta; (uncooked)
 
  Saute the garlic in olive oil until lightly browned.  Do this in a
  skillet large enough to hold the tomatoes later.  Leave garlic in
  skillet.
  
  Place tomatoes, salt & pepper, basil and balsamic vinegar in a
  non-reactive bowl and set aside for 10 minutes, stirring
  occassionally.
  
  Boil water for pasta.
  
  Just before you put the pasta in the water, drain tomatoes and
  reserve the juice that runs off.  (I usually set my colander on a
  dinner plate). Put the angel hair pasta in the water to cook for the
  recommended amount of time.
  
  Heat your garlic skillet and toss drained tomatoes briefly JUST to
  heat. They should retain their shape. The pasta should finish cooking
  (usually no more than 5 min. for angel hair) at the same time the
  tomatoes are ready.
  
  Toss the pasta and tomato mixture together and serve with freshly
  grated parmesan cheese
