I came across this recipe in Cooking Light a while back, tore it out and forgot about it.  It turned up again while I was going through some recipes and I decided to get the ingredients for an easy weeknight meal.  Super easy and delicious!
Ingredients
1 (9-ounce) package refrigerated fresh fettuccine (I used whole wheat penne)
2 tablespoons olive oil 
3 garlic cloves, minced 
4 cups cherry tomatoes, halved 
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup fresh basil leaves, torn 
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 
2 ounces Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, shaved (about 1/2 cup) 
Preparation
1. Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain; place pasta in a large bowl.
2. While pasta cooks, heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic to pan; cook 1 minute, stirring frequently. Add tomatoes and salt; cover and cook 4 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in basil and pepper. Add tomato mixture to pasta; toss well to combine. Top with cheese.
