About Recipe

We often have a craving for a pasta dish. We start by searching the frig and pantry for ingredients. We found Farfalle pasta, some organic cherry tomatoes, some organic asparagus, a partial jar of Pesto sauce, some pignolis that we had sauteed (pan roasted), some fresh basil and a block of Parmesan cheese. So this delicious pasta was born of expedience. It was quick and easy to make and very tasty as usual.

20 organic cherry tomatoes
