1 and a half teaspoon dried basil.
Salt, Pepper to taste.
1 pound spaghetti, cooked and drained.

Heat the oil and butter in a saucepan. Add the garlic and tomatoes and cook 1 or 2 minutes. Add vegetables, about one and a half cup bouillon, the basil, salt, and pepper. Cook slowly, covered, until just tender. When cooked, toss with the spaghetti and serve with the cheese. Serves 4.
