3/4 cup slicced black olives shopping list
2-4 cloves of garlic (Depends how garlicky you want it), chopped shopping list
And..Your choice..prefered amount of capers, or sliced green olives with pimentos. (either are optiional..i like the capers myself) shopping list
season with sea salt and fresh ground pepper to suit your taste shopping list
Set aside extra graded parmesan to sprinkle on top when serving shopping list
Fresh Tri-colored linguine..about one - 16oz package shopping list

In a large bowl mix together the tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil, the Fresh basil, parmesan cheese, garlic, black olives, and if you choose...the capers or green olives...salt and pepper to your taste..mix well and then cover the bowl and place in reridgerator to blend in its flavours for a good couple of hours....
When you are getting ready to eat, cook the pasta until it is done...make sure not to over cook...When it is done to perfection...drain, and then return to the pot...Dump in the Tomato and Basil mixture and stir, making sure to blend in well
Dish out servings on individual plates and enjoy...
