¼ Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil plus 2 T.

2 Garlic Cloves minced

½ t. Salt

¼ t. Pepper

½ t. Crushed Red Pepper

On a cookie sheet place the tomatoes, skin side down, on the cookie sheet.  Mix all ingredients; minus the pasta, in a mixing bowl.  Pour the mixture over the tomatoes, and bake for 45 minutes or until the tomatoes are starting to turn brown.

While the tomatoes are cooking boil your pasta per box instructions.
