A super easy, fresh, fast pasta dish that can be made as a main course or side dish. I always try to make it with heirloom tomatoes when they are in season.

Ingredients

4 large tomatoes, diced
½ cup chopped fresh basil
¼ cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
½ pound dry tagliatelle or wide fettucine pasta
1 tablespoon shredded Parmesan cheese

Steps:

Stir together the tomatoes, basil, red wine vinegar, olive oil, and oregano in a bowl; allow mixture to stand at least 10 minutes.
Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the tagliatelle pasta, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, but still firm, about 8 minutes. Drain well. Mix the hot cooked tagliatelle into the tomato mixture; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese to serve.
