EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Mostaccioli are tubular “mustaches” of pasta about 2 inches long. With slanted cuts at both ends, these pasta shapes have either a smooth or grooved finish.

You can roast the tomatoes and garlic ahead of time, if you’d like. Just toss with the hot pasta, basil and cheese when you're ready to eat!

I loved this recipe! In the future, I'll probably roast the garlic peeled to prevent the mess of peeling it after the fact. I'm not big on a ton of seasonings or spices so it was perfect for me and the basil smells soooo good!

I love this dish and make it often. It can be a little bland for some people, so I switch it up by adding crushed red pepper flakes and roasted red bell peppers.

My boyfriend loved this recipe..though I did change it a bit...I made some marinara and added it to it on top...not quite as healthy probably, but it tasted really good...I just felt that it needed something. The roasted tomatoes and garlic were really good..a bit messy though.
