I just made the Best Pasta

Ok
This is an unusual blog for this space but here it goes:
I am no chef nor would I consider myself a foodie only to the extent that I like to eat.
I am frequently trying to make a decent pasta. I discovered a product called Sun Dried Tomato Spread
made by Sun Dry. Oh man is it good.
So I started out using it on baguette like a bruschetta type thing and then thought hmmmmmmmm
I think hmmmmmmmm a great deal. ‘Wonder how this would do with some pasta?’
I tried it a couple of times in my normal manner and was not completely satisfied. So today I did the following and it turned out so well.
Boiled up some whole wheat spaghetti and made sure it was good and tender. In doing this I also mixed in some Italian seasoning. A real basic dollar store type, just the usual mix and nothing special.
After the pasta had boiled I turned off the heat and covered it, letting it sit covered for 15 minutes.
I drained it and then mixed in about a couple of tablespoons of olive oil and some sea salt. I drained it with a plate and not in a colander to make sure that the seasoning stayed in the mix. Then I took the aforementioned California Sundried Spread and mixed it with the pasta. I used about 3 tablespoons of it.
Wha LA!
I enjoyed it thoroughly Enough so I blogged it.
