Quick, Delicious and Easy PastaIngredients (use vegan versions): 2 medium-sized ripe tomatoes
2 stalks of celery
one clove of garlic
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1/2 teaspoon of salt
pasta of choice
Directions:Cook pasta according to directions.
While the pasta is cooking, roughly chop up the tomatoes to bite-sized pieces. Chop the celery into small pieces as well. Chop the garlic into very fine pieces and mix all of it in a bowl with the olive oil and salt. Absolutely quick, easy and wonderful!
The pasta should be done by now. Simply pour the pasta together with the vegetables and stir.
It is so easy to make, and I can make it on days when my mother goes on a strike and refuses to cook. Bahh.
This serves one person, and to get a rough idea of how much pasta you need, take a big bowl, pour the uncooked pasta inside till it fills about 1/4 of the bowl. Because the pasta expands when it cooks, you'll get a big bowl of pasta when its done. enjoy your meal!
Serves: 1
Preparation time: 15 minutes
This would also be nice with some chilli flakes scattered in and also some black olives

Bravo to your mom. When I go on strike (never completely, there's usually something left over in the fridge), my teen has pasta with peanut butter. If you're not so into raw tomatoes, you can cut the tomatoes into wedges (plum tomatoes in half, cherry or grape tomatoes leave whole), spray with olive oil spray or drizzle on some oil and sprinkle generously with one of those lovely combination seasonings or your choice. Roast in the over on high heat for about a half hour or till tomatoes start to brown around the edges. Mix the pasta with that, add some vegan cheese if you'd like.
