- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- ⅓ cup sundried tomatoes, chopped optional
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 3 cups chicken stock or water
- 1 (15-oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained

- to taste salt & pepper
- ½ cup grated Parmesan
- ¼ cup cream cheese OR ricotta, mascarpone use more for extra creaminess

Sauté
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté the onion, garlic and sun-dried tomatoes until starting to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste and Italian seasoning and cook for 1 more minute.
Cook the pasta
Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until pasta is done, about 10-15 minutes. If the pasta starts looking dry and there doesn't seem to be enough liquid, add a little extra broth during the cooking process.
