We’ve had potato salad and green salad but we haven’t had nearly enough pasta, so we asked senior contributor Chris Prosperi for one of his favorite easy pasta recipes using summer tomatoes.

The sauce is made from the juice of the fresh tomatoes, white wine, a little reserved pasta cooking water, garlic and crushed red pepper. Mix in some chopped fresh arugula with grated Parmesan and you’re on your way to Pasta Heaven. — FM
