Basic Parmesan Pomodoro

Don't let of the name of this recipe fool you: This week's Most Popular Pin of the Week is anything but "basic." Giada De Laurentiis builds layer upon savory layer of flavor in her fan-favorite recipe, starting with bold garlic, sweet carrots and the rind of nutty Parmesan cheese. When these ingredients are slowly simmered with the canned cherry tomatoes, the taste turns out deeply rich and the texture thick and nearly creamy without the use of cream.
