Farfalle with buttery tomato pasta sauce with fresh basil.
Fortunately my children are, like their mom, pasta lovers. 
We have so many pasta recipes in our family, that we can eat pasta, every day, for a month, and even more, without having the same sauce twice.
Take a look at this buttery tomato pasta sauce. What makes a difference is the butter.This sauce is absolutely buttery and kind of sweet. The sweetness is provided by the sugar which counter balances the natural acidity of the tomatoes. 
Served over a bowl of al dente farfalle with fresh basil leaves, this buttery tomato pasta sauce makes the perfect appetizer and during the summer can be served as a meal by itself. My boys love it and so do I. I hope you like it.
