Submitted by Andreahjh

"This is an excellent, quick and easy Jamie Oliver recipe. You could use other pasta but Spaghetti mixes easily with the tomatoes. Delicious with Basil. Haven't tried it with Marjoram yet."

A nice change from spaghetti with red sauce and a great way to use up cherry tomatos when the garden gets ahead of you. I enjoyed it cold as well.
