Bean Awhile...

I've been slacking again. But I made up an awesome recipe this week, easy and cheap and dee-licious. Here it is; call it Pasta and Beans with Tomato/Cheese Topping:
Throw a splosh of olive oil in a pan; heat. Next throw in a handful of organic cherry tomatoes from the farmers' market/your CSA box, and let them soften a bit in the oil. Add a nice fistful of leftover pasta, and an equal amount of canned white beans (I used Trader Joe's) and some of the beany liquid. Stir. Toss in some good pasta sauce and a few torn basil leaves. Cook until the juices are nice and gooey; pour into a bowl and grate some Parmigiano Reggiano on top. Feel the yumminess overtake you.
p.s. if you have 2 ravenous kittens, lock them in another room while you eat, then let them lick the empty bowl
