Bow Tie Pasta and Veggie Scampi

Submitted by ARathkamp

"This dish was inspired by a dinner at a golf country club. The menu was a "create your own" pasta bar and this recipe is the closest I can come to replicating that dish. Serve with some warm garlic toast and a salad."

I was surprised by how good this was. I expected it to be fairly bland and vegan foodish, but it was very flavorful and satisfying. I was also surprised by the amount of butter called for, I halved it. I doubled the artichokes. But it turned out perfectly, we could have this every week.
