This was perfect for a fun, low-key dinner to celebrate my mom's birthday. It was really good and really easy, so I was able to spend more time hanging out with my fam.
Olive oil
2 (14.5 oz.) cans diced tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup heavy cream or half and half (the half and half is good but it's definitely better with the heavy cream)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
16 oz. rotini pasta
Heat skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle about 3 teaspoons of olive oil in pan. Add garlic and cook until fragrant. Meanwhile, cook pasta. Add tomatoes to skillet and simmer over medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until the tomato chunks start to soften. With a spatula lightly mash the tomato chunks to release the juices. Continue to simmer until sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Add cream and cheese and cook 1 more minute. Add pasta and toss to coat. Serve immediately with a little more Parmesan sprinkled on top.
