This is a pasta my dad threw together a couple of years ago. It's one of those things you can trow together quickly. The best part is you can serve as a main dish or a side dish. If you want you can add shrimp, clams, or chicken. You can adjust the ingredients to your taste. Sometimes will use 3 cans of tomotos. Warning, I love to use fresh garlic, so if you are going out into public bring gum!
Ingredients:
1 lb linguine
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 -4 fresh garlic cloves (chopped)
6 ounces pitted black olives (sliced)
2 (14 ounce) cans diced tomatoes (garlic, basil, oregano flavor)
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon basil
1/4 teaspoon oregano
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)
crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Directions:
1. Boil noodles as directed.
2. In skilliet heat oil.
3. Saute garlic until just soft.
4. Add sliced olives (I slice whole olives myself) (Depending on how many servings I make, I may chop the olives).
5. Once heated add canned tomato.
6. Add seasonings as desired (except cheese).
7. If you are adding cooked meat/seafood this is where to do it.
8. Once heated through remove from heat add cheese.
9. Toss with noodles and serve.
10. Garnish with extra cheese if desired.
