• 1/2 box penne
• 16 oz tomatoes
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp red pepper flakes
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1/2 large onion
• 6 leaves basil
• 1 tbsp cilantro
• 2 cups water

• 1 Dice half a yellow or white onion and sautee over medium heat until just soft.
• 2 Smash the garlic cloves and roll in salt, then chop finely. Once the onions are soft, add the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds.
• 3 Dice tomatoes (or use no added sodium canned diced tomatoes, as I did) and add with basil, chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper.
• 4 Add pasta. Add just enough water to cover the pasta, and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring regularly. About 5 minutes before finished cooking, add other spices.
