Penne with Heirloom Tomatoes and Garlic-Anchovy Breadcrumbs
This dish (and others like it) is one of my most favorite things about summer. You can go to the farmers' market and wander around aimlessly enjoying the warm sunshine and food eye candy, picking up bits and pieces as you go until your arms are suddenly filled with fresh fruit, veggies, bread, and other yummy things. When you get home, the fun part starts: figuring out what to do with all of it.
Last weekend's precious little haul included freshly baked ciabatta bread, heirloom tomatoes and garlic. With those simple, but perfect ingredients, along with a few others I had hanging around the kitchen, I pulled together this delicious pasta dish for a weekday dinner. It includes a light sauce made entirely from one juicy tomato and some good olive oil and handmade garlic-anchovy breadcrumbs to give the pasta a crunchy little kick and it tastes just like summer should. Sidenote: from-scratch breadcrumbs are super quick and easy to make, in case you were wondering. Recipe below. Happy weekend! xoxo

WOW that looks amazing. I can't even remember the last time I had a proper pasta dish (they are very expensive in Thailand). Maybe I should just make it myself. Thanks!
