PASTA WITH MARINATED TOMATOES AND SUMMER HERBS
The easiest summer dinner known to man, pasta con salsa crudo, is a one-bowl, infinitely variable riot of seasonal flavors. It can be made with fancy Italian tuna and local heirloom tomatoes for foodies, or with supermarket mozzarella and tomatoes for children, or with excellent olives and extra pine nuts for vegetarians. It puts you in the kitchen for about a half-hour at the tail end of lunchtime. After that, all there is to do is cook the pasta, and serve with or without crusty bread, boiled corn, sliced tomatoes, or a nice, simple green salad.

PASTA WITH MARINATED TOMATOES
If there's one thing we're happy to be drowning in come summertime, it's tomatoes. Fresh from the farmers' market or juicy and on sale from our local supermarket, we don't discriminate-and our summer dishes are all the better for it. A marinade is one of the easiest ways to infuse your seasonal bounty with even more flavor. Bathing your tomatoes in a vinaigrette at room temperature for even just 20 minutes lets them release their juices, absorb an assortment of marinade flavors, and break down a bit to become more tender. Then the creativity kicks in. Once marinated, tomatoes are an instant upgrade to any recipe you please, and they make an especially nice swap for a jarred sauce in summertime pasta. Tangy tomatoes play nicely with penne in this seasonal pasta that's quick enough for any busy cook. Our Pasta with Marinated Tomatoes will fill your table with a colorful bowl of pasta in under 30 minutes. Pulse one-fourth of your produce into a soft base to allow the marinated tomato flavor to nestle inside the nooks and carnies of your penne. It'll help make sure your pasta is coated and the marinated zest makes it into each bite. From there, all you need is fresh basil, mozzarella cheese, and your remaining, in-tact tomatoes to toss together an eye-catching, seasonal supper. Serve alongside a simple salad and some homemade garlic bread, and you can be sure the whole family will be happy (and asking for seconds).

PASTA WITH MARINATED TOMATOES AND SUMMER HERBS
From the August 2009 New York Times, courtesy of Julia Moskin. This one dish meal is designed to be quick and satisfying to a wide range of tastes (note several options). It's also very easy to make, but needs time to marinate. Spend a few minutes in the kitchen after lunch and all you need to do for dinner is cook the pasta. This recipe can be easily halved for fewer diners. I picked the vegetarian option, but you could substitute tuna for the cheese if you'd prefer. My preference might be to add more tomatoes and/or reduce the pasta to sauce ratio.

PASTA SALAD WITH MARINATED TOMATOES AND TUNA
Fresh, quick-marinated tomatoes make the best sauces for pasta salad because not much needs to be done beyond tossing the tomatoes with hot pasta, salt and olive oil. The juices from the tomatoes and the heat create a gloriously glossy combination. Feel free to make this pasta salad ahead of time, then toss in flaked tuna right before serving.

Steps:
- Toss cherry tomatoes, olive oil, shallot, garlic, oregano and vinegar in a large bowl. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season generously with salt.
- Add pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the shape and brand of pasta. With a spider or slotted spoon, strain pasta directly into tomato mixture and toss to combine. Season to taste with more salt and pepper.
- Stir in flakes of tuna and serve with a drizzle of olive oil on top. The pasta can be served hot or at room temperature.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will make a big difference in the final dish.
- Marinate the tomatoes for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Use a variety of herbs and spices in the marinade. This will give the tomatoes a complex and interesting flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the tomatoes. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Cook the tomatoes until they are slightly softened but still hold their shape. You don't want to overcook them or they will become mushy.
- Serve the tomatoes immediately with your favorite pasta. They can also be used as a topping for grilled chicken or fish.
Conclusion:
Pasta with marinated tomatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The tomatoes are packed with flavor and the pasta is cooked to perfection. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
