Tomato Basil Fettuccine



I've had a very busy past couple of days being pregnant. As I near the end of this lengthy and mostly uncomfortable journey I find that I am significantly more hungry than usual. When I desire something to eat I often think on one thing and that is the thing I must eat. So, when I began to crave fresh basil I made a family favorite to eat along Parmesan chicken.

Tomato Basil Fettuccine

  • A couple of cups of cooked fettuccine
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Clove of minced garlic (Note: We are garlic addicts...I recommend adding garlic to your taste)
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Saute' onion, garlic and olive oil together. Add tomatoes and warm them in the olive oil mixture. In a separate bowl, toss fettuccine, olive oil mixture, fresh basil and grated Parmesan together. Enjoy!
