A taste of summer

I got tomatoes and basil in my box this week! They were the first tomatoes of the season - little yellow cherry ones. I made a simple pasta dish. I Just sauted onions and garlic and crimini mushrooms. Then I added oregano and the halfed cherry tomatoes and cooked until the tomatoes broke down. Then I added some fresh basil and cook for just a minute more. Meanwhile, I cooked some really nice kamut pasta spirals, which I added back to the sauce along with a little pasta water to give the dish the right moisture. I topped it with some nice pecorino romano. It was definitely a nice preview for the summer produce to come.
