One Pot Veggie Pasta Recipes

VEGETABLE PASTA - ONE POT!

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot over medium. Add garlic and onion - cook slowly for 3 to 4 minutes until onion is translucent and sweet.
• Turn heat up to medium high, add zucchini and capsicum. Cook 1 1/2 minutes.
• Add remaining ingredients EXCEPT pasta and broccoli. Stir until tomato paste dissolves.
• When liquid starts bubbling, lower heat to medium, add pasta and stir. Top with broccoli, push in.
• Place lid on and cook for 5 minutes.
• Remove lid. Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until pasta is almost cooked through and most of the liquid has been absorbed by the pasta.
• Stir through half the cheese (if using). Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
• Top with remaining cheese, put lid on. Leave for 1 minute until cheese is melted and pasta is perfectly cooked.
• Garnish with parsley and serve immediately. Don't leave leftovers in the pot, residual heat will overcook the pasta so transfer into a serving dish.

• During this final cooking time, put the half & half, parmesan, butter, salt, and pepper in a large serving bowl.
• Drain pasta and veggies well and immediately pour into the serving bowl. Toss to coat all with cream mixture. Serve at once.
