1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente.

2. Saute onion in lots of olive oil.

3. Remove the onion from the oil.

4. Add chopped tomatoes to the pan with the oil. Cook for 20 minutes adding water if needed.

6. Drain the pasta. Combine pasta and sauce. Season with basil and parmigiano. Voilà, Michelin star dish at home.

Tip: Here’s my friend @theentrepreneursnutritionist and nutritionist’s advice on turning this dish into a complete meal:

• Consider adding simple protein sources to the pasta, such as chicken, turkey, salmon (an excellent source of omega-3s), or tofu.
• For picky eaters, you can blend cooked quinoa into the sauce to boost the protein content without altering the texture.
