Tonight's Yummy Dinner

Capellini with Tomato-Basil-Garlic Sauce

Meal: Dinner

Who made it: My mom

Tastyness: 9/10

Healthyness: 7.5/10

Comments: This isn't like a typical tomato sauce, and this sauce isn't even tomato-based! It's basically just a garlic and oil sauce with added tomatoes and basil. Either way, though, it's delicious. To make, simply boil capellini according to package directions. Meanwhile, heat 1/3 cup oil in a sauce pan. Add 3 cloves of chopped garlic and stir until garlic is fragrant. Add 1 chopped tomato and parsley and red pepper flakes to taste. Combine the sauce with the pasta, and top with some shredded basil.
