Tomato Tagliatelle Pasta

Looking for the perfect pasta dish to satisfy all your cravings? Look no further than Tomato Tagliatelle Pasta! This easy-to-handle pasta is packed with flavor, and is sure to become your new favorite.

To make this dish, start by cooking the pasta in a pot of boiling salted water until it's perfectly al dente. From there, it's all about nailing the sauce. I recommend using homemade tomato puree for the best possible flavor, but canned tomatoes will work just fine as well.

And if you're looking to add some extra veggies to your dish, feel free to get creative! Asparagus, red capsicum, and even carrot can all make great additions to this classic dish.
