Tomato Pastina
Pastina is commonly know as "Italian Penicillin" because it allegedly can cure almost anything! Pastina is a tiny star-shaped pasta that cooks into the most delightful, wonderful little bite. This version features Red Gold Tomato Paste and Red Gold Crushed Tomatoes for a bright tomato flavor that complements the richness and comfort of the pastina. So cozy and delicious! @alexawhatsfordinner @thefeedfeed

Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add in the shallot and cook for about 3 minutes, until translucent and fragrant. Add in the garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Add in the pastina and stir to toast for about 3 minutes. Add in the Red Gold Tomato Paste and stir to combine. Allow the tomato paste to cook slightly, about 3 more minutes.
