Penne with Roasted Tomatoes and Garlic

Serves: 4

Print this Recipe

Garlic has long been associated with health and vitality. With that in mind, this recipe provides a wealth of health! A bulb of garlic may seem like a whole lot, but when it's roasted, as we've done, garlic becomes mellow and sweet with a butter-soft texture.


   1/4 cup olive oil or vegetable oil
   8 to 10 roma (plum) tomatoes, cut into half
   1 teaspoon sugar
   1/4 teaspoon salt
   Freshly ground pepper
   1 bulb garlic, unpeeled
   2 cups uncooked penne pasta (8 ounces)
   1/4 cup chopped fresh or 1 tablespoon dried basil leaves
   4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled


1. Heat oven to 300°. Cover cookie sheet with aluminum foil; generously brush with 1 tablespoon of the oil.

2. Arrange tomato halves, cut sides up, in single layer on cookie sheet; brush with 4 teaspoons of the oil. Sprinkle with sugar, salt and pepper. Cut 1/2 inch off top of garlic bulb; drizzle 2 teaspoons of the oil over garlic bulb. Wrap in aluminum foil; place on cookie sheet with tomatoes.

3. Bake 55 to 60 minutes or until garlic is soft when pierced with a knife and tomatoes have begun to shrivel; cool slightly.

4. Cook and drain pasta as directed on package.

5. Squeeze garlic into remaining 1 tablespoon oil and mash until smooth; toss with pasta. Add tomato halves and basil; toss. Top with cheese. Serve immediately.
