Mixed Veggie Pasta

Here is one of our favorite summer recipes. It is yummy and changes as the garden does.

Mixed Veggie Pasta

-your favorite pasta (we like farfalle)

-a variety of your favorite garden veggies. : ) yes, it's a very scientific recipe.

-meat as you like

tonight we used:

onions, chopped
carrots, finely chopped

beets, chopped

pea pods, cut into thirds,

swiss chard, cut into strips

(soon we will be adding beans, summer squash, tomatoes, a variety of peppers, etc)

saute onions in olive oil. Start adding other veggies from the most firm (carrots) to the most tender (swiss chard...it gets piled on top, then I simply set the cover on top). We gently soften everything...you can saute as much or as little as you like.

put your favorite pasta in a dish and layer these yummy veggies over the top. We also added a little well seasoned/herbed locally raised ground beef. yum!
