Pasta with Fresh Tomato-Herb Sauce

Comments
This recipe is from Epicurious.com.  If you forget the garlic, like I did, it will still be delicious.  It makes quite a lot and works as a cold pasta salad quite well also.  I used 4 tomatoes, 2 yellow and 2 purplish.  We all had seconds. Cold leftovers the next few days were also fantastic and I've modified the recipe to include the lemon juice I added.  It definitely enhanced the dish.
