Even on the laziest day, you can prepare a true Mediterranean-style masterpiece for dinner: simply place the spaghetti and all the ingredients in a large skillet, cover with water, and cook. When you remove the lid, you'll have cooked pasta in a flavorful tomato sauce. All that's left to do is add the cheese, allowing it to melt and meld with the sauce, and sprinkle with fresh basil.
