One Pot Tomato Basil Pasta

After a long, hot day at the pool with the kids I couldn't bring myself to go outside and barbecue the hamburgers I had planned on having for dinner tonight.  I had seen a recipe going around Facebook for Tomato Basil Pasta that you toss all the ingredients into a pot and let it simmer.  I had been meaning to give it a try, and tonight was the night.  It was a very easy recipe to throw together, and THRIVE made it even easier.  You can find the original recipe at www.apronstringsblog.com.

• 12 ounces of pasta of your choice
• 1 1/2 C. THRIVE Tomato Dices
• 3/4 C. THRIVE Chopped Onions
• 1 tsp. THRIVE Tomato Powder
• 2 tsp. THRIVE Oregano
• 1 tsp. THRIVE Basil
• 4 1/2 tsp. THRIVE Chicken Bouillon
• 1/2 tsp. Red Pepper Flakes
• 1/4 tsp. Salt
• 4 cloves Minced Garlic
• 2 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 5 1/2 C. Water
• Parmesan Cheese

Place all the ingredients into a large pot except for Parmesan Cheese.  Cover the pot and bring to a boil.  Reduce to a low simmer and keep covered.  Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes.  After 10 minutes, most of the liquid will have evaporated, but you can cook for a little longer to reduce more of the liquid.  Stir and serve, garnishing with Parmesan Cheese and enjoy!
