Garden Vegetable Pasta
Report
Fusilli pasta is tossed with garden vegetables and a light vinegar-herb dressing. A great way to enjoy garden veggies in the summertime!
Share:
Ingredients
- 8 oz. pasta (gluten-free if desired*)
- 1 yellow onion or 1/2 large, small
- 1 zucchini medium
- 1 yellow summer squash
- 3 tomato medium, ripe
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/4 cup basil or parsley, etc, fresh
For the vinegar-oregano dressing:
- 2 1/2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
- 1/2 tsp. oregano or other herb of your choice, dried
- 1/8 tsp. salt (more/less to taste)
Instructions
- Cook pasta according to package directions, leaving al dente (slightly firm, not mushy). Drain when finished.
- Meanwhile, chop the onion. Dice zucchini and yellow squash. Chop tomatoes.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, sauté onions for about 4 minutes. (I use 3 Tbsp. broth/water for no-oil sauté method, adding more as needed.)
- Add zucchini and yellow squash. Stir and sauté 6-7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mince garlic.
- Add chopped tomatoes and garlic to pan. Sauté 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Combine dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to combine.
- Add cooked (drained) pasta to a large bowl. Add dressing, cooked vegetables, and chopped fresh basil. Toss to combine.
- Salt/pepper to taste as needed. Add a splash more vinegar, or more basil if desired.
Notes
- *For gluten-free: I use brown rice + quinoa fusilli pasta.
- Garlic: If you want a more pronounced garlic flavor, simply add it to the dressing and keep it raw, instead of sautéing it with the vegetables.
- Variations: Try this with other vegetables (bell pepper, mushroom, etc.) or herb combinations.
