Vegetable Pasta - One Pot!

olive oil

garlic (, minced)

onion (, finely chopped)

zucchinis* (, halved lengthwise and

red capsicum/bell pepper* (, halved and sliced)

corn* ((frozen

250 grams/ 0.5lb ziti/penne (,

800 g / 28 oz crushed tomato

/ 375 ml vegetable or chicken broth

tomato paste

Italian herb mix ((or other dried herbs))

garlic powder

tsp red pepper flakes

salt

0.5 tsp black pepper

cheese

parsley ((optional))

Parmesan ((if not using cheese))

Heat oil in a large pot over medium. Add garlic and onion - cook slowly for 3 to 4 minutes until onion is translucent and sweet.

Turn heat up to medium high, add zucchini and capsicum. Cook 1 1/2 minutes.

Add remaining ingredients EXCEPT pasta and broccoli. Stir until tomato paste dissolves.

When liquid starts bubbling, lower heat to medium, add pasta and stir. Top with broccoli, push in.

Place lid on and cook for 5 minutes.

Remove lid. Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until pasta is almost cooked through and most of the liquid has been absorbed by the pasta.

Stir through half the cheese (if using). Adjust salt and pepper to taste.

Top with remaining cheese, put lid on. Leave for 1 minute until cheese is melted and pasta is perfectly cooked.

Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.&nbsp;Don't leave leftovers in the pot, residual heat will overcook the pasta so transfer into a serving dish.

This healthy eggplant pasta is vibrant and filling. An easy twist on pasta alla norma, a simple Italian pasta made with eggplant and tomato.

Eggplant Pasta

whole wheat pasta

extra virgin olive oil

eggplant

red bell pepper

garlic (minced)

black pepper

red pepper flakes

tomato pasta sauce

kalamata olives

Boil

Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, according to package directions. Drain, toss with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking, and set aside.

Cook

Meanwhile, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Add the chopped eggplant and bell pepper and cook until just softened, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the garlic and sauté just until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes and stir to combine.

Stir in the tomato sauce, then the olives. Let simmer 5 minutes, or until heated through. Stir in the lemon juice and zest.

Stir

Stir the pasta into the eggplant tomato sauce, adding a little more of the prepared pasta sauce as needed to moisten the noodles. Served topped with chopped fresh herbs and Parmesan. Enjoy immediately.

This truly is a wonderful springy gem! Bucatini noodles in a garlic-infused creamy sauce and twirled around buttery bits of asparagus and peas. SO GOOD! 

Garlic Cream Bucatini with Peas and Asparagus

DeLallo Bucatini Pasta

butter

half a bunch of asparagus, ends trimmed and sliced diagonally (about 1 1/2 cups once cut)

garlic, grated

broth

heavy cream

peas

lemon juice

salt and pepper

breadcrumbs

Cook pasta to al dente according to package directions.

Melt butter over medium heat. Add asparagus and cook for 5 minutes, until soft and bright green. (You&#8217;ll simmer the asparagus a bit longer in the sauce, so it&#8217;s okay if it&#8217;s still a little firm.)

Add garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. 

Add broth and heavy cream; bring to a low simmer. Once it thickens into more of a sauce, add in the frozen peas for the final few minutes of cooking. Season with the lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. 

Toss the sauce with the pasta; keep it all over low heat for a few minutes so the pasta and the sauce really come together. Let stand for a few minutes if necessary for everything to thicken and the sauce to really cling on to the pasta. Top with lots and lots of breadcrumbs, and some rotisserie chicken or sautéed shrimp if you want! So yum!

Can't wait to make this with chicken or salmon!  Sounds divine and i LOVE bucatini pasta!!

Simple Pasta with Broccoli and Sun-Dried Tomatoes

sun-dried tomatoes (see note)

Cook the pasta according to package directions, then drain.

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the garlic and sauté for a minute or two over low heat, just until golden.

Add the broccoli to the skillet along with about 1/4 cup water. Cover and steam over medium heat until the broccoli is bright green and just a little beyond tender-crisp. Remove from the heat.

Serve at once, passing around dried hot red pepper flakes, and lemon or lime wedges if desired for embellishing individual portions.

Recipe video above. This is the Pasta Primavera recipe made famous by Le Cirque restaurant in NYC. It was first published in a magazine in the 1970&#39;s! This is an excellent big creamy pasta fix with less guilt thanks to a ton of vegetables. The trick here is timing so that all the vegetables finish cooking to tender-crisp perfection at the same time. Don&#39;t skip the pine nuts. It&#39;s the signature finishing touch.Counting calories?

/ 10 oz linguine ((fettucine,

white mushrooms

zucchini (,

broccolini

snow peas ((~10 pieces, 75 grams/2.5 ounces))

asparagus

green peas (, defrosted)

cherry tomatoes (,

garlic (, finely minced)

tbsp / 75 g unsalted butter

heavy cream ((Note 3))

Parmigiano reggiano (, finely grated (sub regular parmesan, Note 4))

tbsp extra virgin olive oil

tsp cooking/kosher salt

tsp black pepper

basil leaves (, finely sliced (Note 5))

tbsp pinenuts (, toasted (Note 7))

Broccolini - Cut off florets then cut in half lengthwise. Then slice the stems diagonally into 2.5 cm / 1&quot; lengths.

Snow peas - Remove the tough string running down the &quot;seam&quot; of the pea. Stack several peas and slice on the diagonal about 1cm / 0.4&quot; wide.

Asparagus - Snap the base off the asparagus, it will naturally break where the woody stem stars. Cut tips off, leave whole and set aside. Slice the stems diagonally into 2.5 cm / 1&quot; lengths.

Cut vegetables:

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add cream and Parmigiano reggiano. Stir, and once the cream starts simmering gently, stir until the cheese melts then take it off the stove and set aside.

Cream Sauce:

Bring a large pot of water to the boil over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and add the pasta. Cook for the time per the packet minus 1 minute. Meanwhile, cook vegetables.

Reserve pasta water: Just before draining the pasta, scoop out a mug of pasta cooking water and set aside. Drain the pasta.

Pasta:

Mushrooms: Heat half the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Cook mushrooms for 4 minutes until golden, remove to a plate.

Veg: Heat remaining oil in the same skillet. Cook broccolini, snow peas and asparagus for 2 minutes. Add zucchini, tomato, green peas, garlic, salt and pepper. Cook for a further 3 minutes. Add mushroom back in, toss, then remove from heat.

Toss! Return pasta into the now-empty pot. Add vegetables, cream sauce and 1/3 cup pasta water. Toss over medium heat using 2 wooden spoons until the sauce thickens and clings to the pasta strands rather than pooling in the base of the pot, about 1 to 2 minutes. (If at any stage the pasta gets too thick, add a splash more pasta water and toss on stove).

Basil &amp; pine nuts - Quickly toss through basil. Divide between 4 bowls. Sprinkle with pine nuts. Devour immediately!

Cook:
