This is something I have made twice now in recent history for our dinners with Cory. He, actually, gave me the recipe, which he got from his mom. This is delicious. I mean, who doesn’t love the flavor combination of tomato and basil?!? I highly recommend this!
Ingredients:
- 8 ounces fettuccine
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup chicken broth (or to make this vegetarian, I have used vegetable broth)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/2 pound tomatoes, seeded and chopped
- 1/3 cup shredded fresh basil leaves
- 4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1. In large skillet, combine cream, broth, and oil. Bring liquid to a boil, reduce heat and simmer vigorously for 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and basil and continue to simmer for 1 minute more.
2. While sauce is simmering, cook fettuccine. Drain well and toss in skillet with Parmesan cheese and sauce to coat well.

Beautiful and delicious! I love fettuccine!
Yummm! This looks delicious!
Tomato and basil. One of my favorite combinations!!!
Basil is one of my favorite herbs! I think I would like to create a basil perfume.
That recipe not only LOOKS delicious, but it actually does not look too difficult to make. (Pasta’s are not normally in my “easy to make”) category.
Nothing like a recipe from “Mom’s” recipe box. We know they are usually “no fail” recipes.
A must try for sure, thanks for sharing!
Good luck and enjoy!!!
