We absolutely love this recipe and have been making it for a couple of years now. We only cook it in the summer though because it really is best with fresh garden tomatoes and Lots of fresh basil. I find these ingredients are hard to come by and expensive in the colder months.

I really love this pasta. I actually cheated and used canned diced tomatoes, and dried basil, which made it even more simple to throw together. The balsamic vinegar is a fantastic addition.

This was heavenly! I often add a splash of balsamic to pasta sauces, but the relatively large amount used in this recipe took it to a new level — tart and tangy and totally addictive. Fresh basil was the perfect finishing touch! I had to use San Marzano tomatoes but can't wait to try it with fresh ones next summer. Served it with a salad, some crusty bread and a glass of wine for a perfect light supper. (For 2, though — not 8!)

This is a great pasta dish! (I used bowtie pasta so it looked really fancy, too.) I loved the tang of the vinegar in the sauce. The only change I made: I simmered the sauce uncovered because I prefer thicker sauce.
