A simple but delicious linguine pasta dish with roasted cherry tomatoes. Roasting the cherry tomatoes adds an extra unique flavor to this. You can add shrimp or chicken to this linguine too but here I just left it plain the way by boys like it. Make sure you do not overcook the linguine it has to be al dente.
