  2. 2 tablespoons olive oil
  3. 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  4. 13 roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped

  6. 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
  7. 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  8. 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
