Penne with Yellow Cherry Tomato Sauce

I don’t know about you, but here in Sardinia, even though it’s late November, it’s still hot. Today I gathered the last yellow cherry tomatoes from the garden and decided to prepare pasta. Penne with yellow cherry tomato sauce is a simple, quick, and especially tasty dish. Certainly one of the last summer dishes of the season, and thank goodness for that. I really miss the winter. I’m getting tired of this unusual heat.
