Garlic Prawn Bruschetta Pasta

Garlic Prawn Bruschetta Pasta
This pasta is as fresh as a dewy morning in Tuscany, the sun rising over rolling fields of the ripest tomatoes, the sweet call of birds beckoning in a new and glorious basil-scented dawn. We've gone and invited prawns to this bucolic party, succulent, tender and juicy, nestled in a bed of firm to the bite pasta with lashings of grassy, springlike olive oil. Overall, this is summer in a plate - enjoy it while it lasts.
