Father's Day Pasta

For Father's Day I decided to give Paul a break from grilling and I cooked up a shrimp pasta dish using tomatoes and basil from the garden. It was simple and tasted great!

I sauteed onions until they were golden.


Then I chopped up some fresh tomatoes and basil from the garden.

I added a pound of peeled and deveined shrimp and cooked until they were a nice shade of pink.

Last I added the tomato and basil and cooked for just a couple of seconds more.

Drizzled the pasta with olive oil and added a generous amount of parmesan cheese.

All that was left to do was toss it all together and serve it. I made a cucumber and tomato salad to go with it and I also had fresh melon and berries on the table. It was a wonderful summer meal!
