Easy Olive Oil, Tomato, and Basil Pasta Recipe Reviews - Allrecipes.com (Pg. 3)

A keeper! The variations you could make on this seem endless, and I had all the ingredients on hand. I made some modifications: spaghetti noodles; instead of roma tomato, package of crushed tomato; doubled the garlic and sauteed the garlic along with some onion in the olive oil before simmering with the crushed tomato, and added the fresh basil at the end. I sliced some mild cheese on top of the pasta before adding the warm sauce on top. Delicious!

Delicious! The only thing I changed was cutting the oil in half. It was plenty. My guest and I loved it.

This was really good. The only problem I had was mincing the garlic. I guess I'll have to practice that, or just used pre-minced garlic or garlic powder next time. I also added red, green, and yellow peppers, along with cucumber.

Excellent! We (my family) love it. I just used spaghetti noodles (mixed whole wheat and spinach noodles), and we added some parmesan. Yummy!!!

Quick & easy and wonderful flavors. Reminds me of a dish I always order at a local restaurant--glad I can now re-create it at home.

It was good, but then we added parmesan cheese and it was great! 4 1/2 stars

This really hit the spot! This is an awesome EASY vegan recipe. I made these modifications...mixed tomato, 4 garlic cloves minced, chopped basil and olive oil 2 hours in advance and let it sit out to room temperature, sauted a chopped onion in olive oil until soft. Added the tomato mixture to the onion for about 2 minutes just to warm it. Tossed with pasta and 1/2 small can of diced olives (like the picture). Salt, pepper, done! It was delicious!

our favorite pasta dish, hot or cold. to make it simple and easily available, i used minced dried garlin and dried basil. i toss it in a small bowl with FOUR roma tomatoes and plenty of EVOO, and i probably add about triple the dried equivalents for the fresh ingredients for both the garlic and basil, and add course sea salt and cayenne for a little heat. i place the bowl on a burner on very low heat to lock in the flavor in the oil while the pasta boils. even my 18 month old will not touch pasta sauce after having this version. love it!!!

Wow, this is really good. I love the test. I added mozzarella cheese, and I used garlic powder instead of fresh garlic. I also sauted it a little to melt the cheese. Definitely will make again.
