This appealing, meatless main dish from Angela Strother of Gainesville, Florida is full of cheesy, tomato flavor. “If you want it saucier, add a bit of the reserved pasta water,” Angela suggests.
Ingredients:
4 ounces uncooked spaghetti
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 small tomatoes, quartered
3/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
5 fresh basil leaves
2 green onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
dash salt and pepper
2 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/4 cup hot water
Directions:
1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a blender, combine the oil, tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, basil, onions, garlic, salt and pepper; cover and process until coarsely chopped.
2. Drain spaghetti and place in a bowl. Add the tomato mixture, mozzarella cheese and water; toss to coat. Yield: 2 servings.
