fresh ground black pepper |
1 lb imported penne |

Directions:
1. Melt the butter in a skillet; add in onion; cook over low heat until soft and translucent.
2. Add in tomatoes; cook until they begin to give up their juice and become saucy.

4. Meanwhile, cook the penne in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente.
