EASY PASTA PRIMAVERA RECIPE
Simple pasta primavera with roasted vegetables and dressed in a light sauce using the pasta cooking water, extra virgin olive oil, lemon zest and a little Parmesan cheese. I use a medley of vegetables, and you can feel free to change them up depending on what is in season! This is a great way to keep your primavera exciting and delicious. If you want to add some extra protein, throw in some quick lemon chicken or grilled shrimp skewers.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with heavy duty aluminum foil.
- Combine the tomatoes, shallots, garlic, olive oil, salt, and sugar on the prepared baking sheet. Toss with your hands or a rubber spatula until the vegetables are evenly coated. Arrange the vegetables in a single layer and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the tomatoes are just starting to brown. Remove the pan from the oven and add the zucchini and corn. Toss with a rubber spatula (the tomatoes will collapse; that's okay) and spread into an even layer. Roast for 5 minutes more, until the zucchini and corn are tender-crisp.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta in salted water until al dente. Drain, then add the pasta back to the pan. Add the roasted vegetables and all their juices to the pasta, along with the butter, herbes de Provence, red pepper flakes, pecorino Romano, basil, and pine nuts. Toss well, then taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Spoon into pasta bowls and drizzle with olive oil, if desired. Serve with more grated cheese.
- Note: Herbes de Provence can be found in the spice section of your supermarket. Most markets carry it but if you can't find it, dried thyme may be substituted.
- Note: To toast the pine nuts, put them in a dry skillet and cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until golden in spots, about 3 minutes.

Steps:
- Gently melt the butter with the parsley, chives and mint and set aside in a warm place. Prepare all the vegetables: shell the peas, wash the carrots and trim away any leaves but leave a short green stalk in place (the stalk is edible but it is also there to show the vegetable is freshly harvested!), thickly slice the courgettes and trim the green beans.
- Bring 2 large pans of water to the boil (one for the pasta, one for the veg). Lightly salt the water in one of the pans, add the pasta to it and cook until al dente (10-12 minutes or according to the cooking instructions on the packet). While the pasta cooks, add the carrots to the other pan and cook for 2 minutes. Next throw in the peas, green beans and courgettes and continue to cook for 3 minutes. Drain both the pasta and the vegetables well. Return the pasta to the hot pan with a splash of olive oil, half the herb butter and the lemon zest and juice. Return the vegetables to their pan, toss with the rest of the herb butter and season well with salt and pepper.
- Spoon the pasta on to serving plates, grind some black pepper over and serve with the vegetables on top. Scatter on as much basil as you like and serve straight away.

SARASOTA'S LIGHTER BAKED PASTA PRIMAVERA
Another Prevention Magazine recipe with a few changes. Since it was in my old recipe box, I presume that this is a quite a few years old, but it is still a great recipe. It is a very basic primavera but I love the creamy ricotta vs the heavy cream sauce. You can change up the "veggies" if you want, but this is pretty classic. Try to get a good quality tomato sauce which can really make a difference in the flavor. If you want, serve with some grilled chicken or steak; or just a nice green salad and some fresh baked bread. It is a great hearty casserole.

Steps:
- Pasta -- Cook pasta according to package directions. Make sure to use plenty of salted water on medium heat in a large pot. Four (4) minutes before the pasta is done (according to directions) add the broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots right in the pot with the pasta and cook 2 minutes. Then to the same pot, add the mushrooms, squash (zucchini and yellow), asparagus and onions. Cook another 2 minutes. Drain well.
- Sauce -- As the pasta and vegetables are draining, add the tomato sauce, garlic, red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning and a pinch of salt and pepper to the pot and mix well and put back on the stove on medium low heat. Add the pasta and vegetables back in a mix to combine. Check for any additional seasoning if necessary (salt and pepper).
- Bake -- In a 13x9" pan, spray well with a non-stick spray. Add the pasta and vegetables and spread out evenly. Top with the ricotta and spread to cover the top of the dish. Then top with the tomato slices, next is the mozzarella, and lastly, the parmesan. Bake at 425 degrees on the middle shelf, uncovered for 15-20 minutes until bubbly and golden brown on top.
- Serve -- ENJOY! A nice hearty casserole.
