A delicious and creamy pasta dish made with fresh tomatoes, basil, and Parmesan cheese.

Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juices), heavy cream, oregano, and sugar. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Reduce the heat and let the sauce simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat the pasta well in the creamy sauce.
Stir in the chopped basil and grated Parmesan cheese until well combined. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through.
Serve the pasta hot, garnished with extra basil leaves and more Parmesan cheese if desired.

Feel free to add more vegetables or protein to the dish for extra flavor.
