I've been making this simple pasta dish for at least a decade. It tastes great with fresh or canned/dried ingredients. This makes a perfect accompaniment to chicken cutlets or chop cooked chicken and add to the pasta. I added a few garlic scapes from my CSA share, which worked well, and I used a few leaves of fresh basil from my new plant.

1 tsp. salt

In a large skillet, heat oil. Add garlic and green onions, stir fry one minute. Stir in tomatoes, basil, salt and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Prepare pasta, drain. Toss tomato mixture with pasta. Serve immediately. Sprinkle with cheese.
