Cook Taste Republic Gluten-Free Red Lentil Fusilli according to package instructions.
Make the bruschetta: Add the minced garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, fresh basil, chopped tomatoes, and shredded parmesan cheese, as well as 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to a large bowl. Mix together and set aside.
When the pasta has finished cooking to al dente, use a slotted spoon to transfer it directly from the pot to the bowl with the bruschetta. Mix everything together in the bowl and allow to sit for about 5 minutes to absorb the flavors and thicken a bit, stirring occasionally. Season to taste if needed. Serve with extra basil, parmesan, and black pepper if desired.
