Preparation:
1. Prepare pasta according to package directions. While pasta is cooking, core tomatoes and cut each tomato into quarters lengthwise. In blender or food processor, process about 1 minute, until very smooth and light pink. Set aside.
2. In large skillet, over medium heat, heat oil. Add garlic and red-pepper flakes; saute 30 seconds. Add peas, roasted red peppers and basil; stir 1 minute. Add pureed tomatoes; heat just to boiling. Remove sauce from heat.
3. Drain pasta; transfer to skillet. Stir over medium heat until pasta is well mixed with sauce. Divide pasta between bowls. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese; serve immediately.
