Add tomatoes, oregano, olives and salt and heat to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer uncovered about 10 minutes, stirring frequently until mixture thickens. To serve, toss cooked pasta with vegetable mixture. Serve with parmesan cheese if desired.
NOTE: For the spiciest flavor, use TRAPPEY'S jalapeno peppers; for medium flavor, use TRAPPEY'S hot cherry peppers; and for a mild flavor, use TRAPPEY'S DULCITO Italian pepperoncini peppers.
