Tonight's dinner
1/2 C Ricotta cheese
1 1/2 T black olive tapenade
2 cloves garlic, crushed and finely chopped
1/3 - 1/2 grated Parmesan
3/4 t Italian herbs
1/4 t red pepper flakes (optional)
1/2 t Worcester sauce
salt, black pepper
handful of fresh basil, roughly chopped
1 C grape tomatoes, halved
3 T raw pine nuts
3/4 lb penne
While the pasta is cooking, mix tapenade, Parmesan, Worcester, and spices together in a bowl; when the pasta is ready, drain it and mix immediately with the cheese mixture, toss, and add basil, tomatoes and pine nuts. Serve.
NB all quantities are estimated from my haphazard cooking style, but this was very tasty.
