Instructions
- Heat a large stockpot of generously-salted water until boiling.
- Stir together the chopped tomatoes, basil, olive oil, balsamic, red onion, garlic, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper in a medium mixing bowl until combined. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat oil or melt butter in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add garlic and crushed red pepper flakes and sauté for 1 minute, stirring frequently. Add the breadcrumbs and stir to combine. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the breadcrumbs are golden. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Cook the pasta until just al dente. Strain and return to the stockpot.
- Top the pasta with the bruschetta mix and briefly toss to combine. Serve warm, topped with the garlicky breadcrumbs and Parmesan, and enjoy!
