Sometimes when you are too tired to really want to cook anything, everything falls into place to make the meal itself. The last of the basil from the CSA had been made into pesto, a chicken breast that needed to be used, and fresh cherry tomatoes from a coworker that is just beginning to enter into the "tomato surplus" part of summer.
All pulls together into a might nice and very satisfying supper.
The non-recipe is as follows: grill one chicken breast, lightly seasones with salt, pepper, and olive oil.
Bring water to boil, salt water fairly liberally. Add fresh pasta to boiling water (for 3 to 3-1/2 minutes).
In bowl put half tablespoon pesto, toss in pasta, toss on top another half tablespoon of pesto. Toss in 5 or 6 halved cherry tomatoes, and the sliced chicken breast. Toss to coat. Forget about the dishes until tomorrow morning.
Hope you have many more ideas to use up all the surplus tomatoes from my backyard!

I have experienced this on many occasions. It's called "Taco Smell." (And, yes, I still provide my own green onions.)
