Okay, the farmers markets are in full swing and there are veggies galore to be had. :) I thought I would share one of our favorite ways to use as many veggies as you want...it doesn't matter how many or which ones you use. I call this an “add whatever you love” dish! And, it's all served in one bowl!!! Here's the basic recipe...play with it!
Herb'n Veggie'n Spaghetti Saute'
1/2 lb. thin spaghetti, broken into thirds
3 tbsp. olive oil
1 cup onion, diced
1 cup bell peppers...any color, diced
1 1/2-2 cups diced fresh tomatoes...any variety or color
1 medium zucchini, quartered and sliced
1 tbsp. RUB'N SEASON HERB'N ALL
shredded Italian cheese blend
Cook pasta according to package directions, rinse in cold water, drain and set aside. In a large skillet, over medium/high heat, saute' onions and peppers in the olive oil for 4 minutes. Add tomatoes, zucchini and Rub'n Season Herb'n All and saute' for an additional 4 minutes. Stir in spaghetti and continue to saute' until pasta is heated through. Serve with cheese sprinkled on top.
Don't forget...you can add any vegetable that you like, just determine if it needs to be sauteed along with the peppers and onions. One more thing...if you love this as much as we do and have a hard time not having those wonderful summer tomatoes, the canned petite diced tomatoes will work in a pinch.
