Homemade Fresh Tomato Garlic Pasta

This recipe has quickly become one of my favorites! I make homemade pasta with my Emeril Lagasse Pasta Maker and then create the sauce with fresh ingredients from my garden. You will not regret buying a pasta maker, I love it, my kids love it, and it definitely tastes better than boxed pasta. Check out Emeril Lagasse Pasta Maker because not only is it a pasta maker but also a juicer and a meat grinder!
