Chilled Penne With Roasted Garlic And Yellow Tomato Recipes

ROASTED GARLIC AND TOMATO PENNE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Cut the top quarter off the head of garlic, drizzle the bulb with olive oil, and wrap tightly in a square of aluminum foil. Place in the oven on the middle rack and bake 50 minutes or until soft and brown.
• Meanwhile, place tomatoes on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and bake 40 minutes, stirring once or twice to make sure they don't burn.
• While the tomatoes and garlic are roasting, bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the penne according to package directions, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water just before draining. Return the pasta to the pot.
• Once the tomatoes and garlic are done, remove from the oven and mash the tomatoes with a fork. Squeeze the garlic out into the tomatoes, add another tablespoon of olive oil, and mash it all together with the fork.
