Roasting enhances the flavors of any vegetable, but seems to add a wonderful, rich sweetness when done with cherry tomatoes. This recipe takes that sweetness, complements it with fresh herbs and a touch of heat from red pepper flakes, with some low-fat ricotta to smooth it all out. I topped it with some salty, nutty Pecorino cheese.

Ingredients

  • red cherry tomatoes: 2 pound (halved)
  • tomatoes: 0.5 pound (chopped)
  • garlic: 3 clove (sliced)
  • chicken broth: 3 Tbsp
  • olive oil: 1 Tbsp
  • balsamic vinegar: 1 Tbsp
  • red pepper flakes: 1 tsp
  • salt: 0.75 tsp
  • black pepper: 0.5 tsp (freshly ground)
  • Fresh Basil Leaves: 0.25 cup (julienned)
  • flat-leaf parsley: 2 Tbsp (chopped)
  • fresh oregano: 1 Tbsp (chopped)
  • ounces whole wheat linguine: 12 piece
  • low-fat ricotta cheese: 0.5 container (16 ounce container)
  • Pecorino Romano cheese: 0.5 cup (finely shredded)
