Notes

When blending the tomato's you don't want it to froth just blend to a puree.
Yellow onions work best with this recipe.
Choose a good quality olive oil
Cook noodles and stir so they don't stick, I add a little olive oil to the water. Cook until the noodles are al dente. 
You can add salt to your boiling water
