Recipe by Brooke Griffin
I try not to use the word “easy” too loosely in my recipes. I can’t tell you how many times I have perused cookbooks looking for the word “easy,” only to become frustrated by overcomplicated recipes that make me want to give up.
Ingredients
12 ounces whole wheat rigatoni (I like Barilla)
1 (28-oz.) can crushed tomatoes with basil (I like Hunt's)
4 light string cheese sticks (I like Sargento), cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 (10-oz.) container grape tomatoes, halved
1/2 small onion, diced
About 12 fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
About 6 fresh basil leaves, chopped, for garnish (optional)
6 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese (I like Sargento Artisan Blends), for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a large pot, combine 3 cups of water, the pasta, crushed tomatoes, cheese pieces, grape tomatoes, onion, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper and stir to combine.
Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered until the pasta has softened, 25 to 30 minutes. Much of the water will boil out.
Serve drizzled with balsamic vinegar. If desired, garnish with chopped basil and Parmesan.
