Pasta with Fresh Vegetables

penne pasta

carrots

olive oil

garlic

plum tomatoes

broccoli florets

yellow summer squash

green pepper

basil basil

thyme thyme

oregano oregano

salt

pepper

Parmesan cheese

Cook pasta according to package directions; drain.

Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, saute carrots in oil until crisp-tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in tomatoes, broccoli, squash, green pepper and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until vegetables are tender, 8-10 minutes.

I almost(!) followed the recipe exactly.  This is a very flexible recipe which can easily be adjusted for individual tastes and preferences.  I had no tomatoes, so left them out.  I added a bit of chicken broth so that vegetables could cook and not brown.  I sauteed bits of bacon separately and added them at the end.  I also sauteed some chopped onion with the garlic.  Even my husband, not really a fan of pasta and vegetables, liked this and asked that I save the recipe.  Lots of parmesan cheese on the side helped him to enjoy it.  It is delicious, and light. Yum.

I adjusted the ingredients by using chicken tortellini and leaving the salt and pepper to each individual. Other than that. It was very satisfying.

This was a really good recipe everyoine loved it.Parboiled the tomatoes to remove skins.

This is a very quick recipe and you can really use whatever veggies that you like. I omitted the tomatoes all together since my boys do not like  them. It's a very colourful and tasty dish and I will be making this again.

This was so delicious! I left out the green pepper, and simmered the ingredients for only a few minutes since we like our veggies crisp-tender. I used fresh herbs from my very first herb garden, and it was so good! I also omitted the parmesan cheese, and used about 1/4 of the noodles because the veggies were so good on their own.
