Grilled Garden Pasta

"I worked at a restaurant that served broiled tomatoes. Yuck. Then I tried them. YUM! I eventually tweaked to my liking and then turned that taste into a meal. This is best grilled over charcoal with your favorite wood chips, I like hickory or apple wood, but a gas grill is fine too if you have a chip box. If you like your red sauce with a hint of sweet you might like this recipe. Serving with garlic bread (HEAVY on the garlic) is essential and for me is the best part of the dish when dipped in the sauce. If you have a side burner on your grill you can cook your pasta and sauce outside as well. Makes a great meatless meal but I sometimes add grilled shrimp or chicken."
