Fried Tomato, Onion And Mushroom Ragout
Why I Love This Recipe
When I was growing up, my mother used to make a simple dish of fried tomatoes and onions that we would soak up with buttered bread. This is an updated version to which I have added mushrooms and fresh basil. My daughter loves this over whole wheat penne pasta and topped with parmesan cheese.

2-3T olive oil
1 C chopped onions
4 medium tomatoes, each cut into 6-8 wedges
2 C sliced white mushrooms
1/4 C chopped fresh basil
salt and pepper to taste
Pasta, cooked
Parmesan cheese
