How did I use those cherry tomatoes I picked from my garden the other day, you ask?! Well, a deliciously simple pasta of course! 🍅😋

You can have a flavorful garden-to-table dinner ready in just 30 minutes! Here’s the Instagram exclusive recipe! ❤️

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cups cherry tomatoes
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon salt
12 oz your favorite gluten-free pasta

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (13oz) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs

vegan Parmesan cheese

Toss the chickpeas in the olive oil and breadcrumbs and air fry until crispy.

Heat a skillet over medium heat, add the oil and garlic. Sauté for a couple of minutes then add the tomatoes. Cover and sauté for about 15 minutes, until they burst and release their juices.

Cook the pasta according to package directions.

Drain the pasta, toss in the skillet with the tomatoes for a couple of minutes to soak up the tomato juices.

Serve topped with the crispy chickpeas and vegan parm.

I picked the last cherry tomatoes from my garden today. That’s it for this year 🥹 it was a little bit of a rough season with all the rain we had here, but we still got to enjoy them. 🍅❤️

We love just snacking on them, but I think I may have enough for one more cherry tomato recipe! 😋
