It doesn’t matter what you use, really, as long as they are fresh and ripe--no tasteless grocery-store tennis balls allowed!)1/4 cup organic extra-virgin olive oil2 cloves garlic, finely minced1 cup fresh basil leaves, stacked and juliennedSalt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste1/3 cup walnuts or pine nuts 1. Cook pasta in boiling salted water according to package directions until al dente. 2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, basil, and salt and pepper to taste. Toss gently to combine. 3. Toast the walnuts or pine nuts in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring, until fragrant. Set aside. 4. Drain pasta and pour on top of tomato mixture, stirring to mix. Add nuts and stir again. Serve immediately. Serves 4. Suzi What is a weed?
