Roast Tomato and Asparagus Pasta Recipe

"I say tomato and you say..."...Roast It for sweetness and added complexity! So we decided to do just that with a pasta dish. Having some skinny asparagus in the fridge, we opted to roast that too and add it to this evolving recipe.

We are attempting to cook and eat as natural as possible; which includes organic vegetables, pasture raised meats and eggs from pasture raised hens; all of the above having been fed a natural diet. But in addition, we are working very hard to let all the natural flavors of the ingredients come through by not over seasoning.

So we decided that the pasta sauce would be extra virgin olive oil with garlic, basil, a little lemon juice and a touch of aged balsamic vinegar. That way the full flavor of the roasted asparagus and tomatoes would come through unscathed. It was delicious and we will be making it one of our go to recipes as it is very easy to make. the only thing that takes any real time is the roasting which can be done while everything else is being prepared.
