Ingredients
12 ounces spaghetti
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
4 cups vegetable broth
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
In a large pot or deep skillet, combine the spaghetti, cherry tomatoes, garlic, onion, vegetable broth, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring frequently to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 10 to 12 minutes.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the chopped basil and grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional Parmesan and basil if desired.
