Simple Tomato Pasta

Simple Tomato Pasta
2 large ripe tomatoes- diced
1 c. chopped flat leaf parsley
2 large garlic cloves- minced
1 Tbl. olive oil
1-2 anchovy filet- minced
Pinch of sugar- if needed
Salt and pepper to taste
Brown rice pasta (I like Jovial)

Optional: Tiny pat of butter, grated parmesan, splash of red wine

1. Set a pot of salted water to boil. In a saute pan add the oil and heat over medium. Once the oil is rippling in the pan add the garlic and when you can smell the garlic- only a minute or so- add in the parsley, tomatoes and anchovies. Turn heat to low and let simmer. If using, add in the red wine.

2. When the water comes to a boil, add the pasta and cook until al dente, then drain. Taste the sauce for salt, pepper and sugar, and add in a pat of butter if you are using. Add the pasta in with the sauce and toss it to mix well. Serve and sprinkle parmesan over.
