Ingredients
- 1 pound penne pasta
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/2 red onion , thinly sliced
- 1 carrot , thinly sliced
- 1 zucchini , cut into half moons 1/4" thick
- 1 yellow squash , cut into half moons 1/4" thick
- 1 red bell pepper , thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic , minced
- 1 pint grape tomatoes , halved
- 1 head broccoli , cut into small florets
- 1 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1 teaspoon basil dried
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper coarse ground
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes crushed
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese shaved
- 1/4 cup parsley , minced
Instructions
- To a pot of salted boiling water add the pasta and cook 1 minute shy of the instructions on the box.
- Drain, but reserve 1 cup of water.
- To a large heavy skillet (that you have a lid for) add the olive oil on medium heat.
- Add in red onion and carrots and stir to coat, cooking for 4-5 minutes until onions have softened.
- Add in zucchini, squash, bell peppers and garlic, stirring to coat.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes.
- Add in the cooked pasta, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes and toss to coat.
- Add in pasta water, tomatoes and broccoli, cover and cook for 3 minutes, steaming the broccoli and tomatoes.
- Add in Parmesan cheese stir to combine and garnish with parsley.
Notes
- To keep the cooking time at around 20 minutes, I cook the pasta in a separate pot while I'm cooking the veggies.
