3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup black olives, pitted and sliced

Grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)

Instructions:

Step 4: Bring the Magic Together

Step 5: Create the Perfect Blend
5. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and gently toss it in the infused olive oil and veggie mixture. If the sauce seems too dry, drizzle some of the reserved pasta water to create a silky and flavorful coating on the pasta.

Step 6: Taste the Sun-Kissed Perfection
6. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. The robust flavors of OLYFO's Extra Virgin Olive Oil, combined with the vibrant veggies, will undoubtedly make your taste buds dance with joy!
