This is so beautiful with all the garden fresh veggies. And like I've mentioned before, I realize that not everyone has a garden with fresh veggies to pick from. But you can still make a beautiful pasta dish with your favorite veggies from a farmer's market or your local store. Or just come to my house. We have tomatoes coming out our ears!
This was so simple and hit the spot. This actually would taste wonderful with wheat pasta too! Enjoy!
