Quick and easy -- perfect for a meatless week day supper. I think this is also very versatile and an easy way to use up the last of the veggies in the refrig. We will be making this often just changing the pasta and vegetables depending on what is on hand. Thanks for sharing!

Absolutely wonderful! This recipe is so much fun!! All fresh vegetables go into this meatless pasta for one great meal. Make sure you have all your vegetables cut up and ready to go before you begin this recipe. I made as directed for a fabulous meal!! I served with a French baguette and tossed green salad. Thanks so much for a great supper tonight, Evelyn!
