This is a long-time favorite recipe I learned from former Sawbill crew-member Mike Gaud. I made this batch with fresh tomatoes, garlic and basil from my garden, which made this delicious dish even tastier.

Pasta Crudo Recipe (2 servings):
Boil water
Add 1 c. pasta, cook until al dente.

Meanwhile, chop:
2 tomatoes
3 sprigs of basil
2 cloves garlic

And combine with:
A drizzle of olive oil
A pinch of salt

When the pasta is done cooking, drain and toss with tomatoes.

Stir in:
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 T shredded parmesan cheese

Optional:
Top with toasted pine nuts.

Tastes great hot, cold, or at room temperature. Excellent as cold leftovers. Warning: May leave mouth tasting garlicky for hours afterwards.
