Ingredients

3 cups cooked macaroni

2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1 medium onion, chopped

1/2 cup chopped celery

2 cups roma tomatoes, cut and seeded

1/2 cup basil, chiffonade

olive oil

1/4 cup fresh grated parmesan

salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Heat about 3 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet on a moderately hot stove. Add onion and garlic and stir until onions are just translucent, about 1 minute. Add celery and cook for one more minute. Add tomatoes and cook until just bubbling. Add cooked pasta. Stir until just heated. Remove from heat and add the basil and half of the parmesan and stir to mix. When plating, sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. This can be served with your favourite meat, or as a meatless entree.
