Pasta Primavera

Posted by ljmacphee on April 16, 2007 under Dinner |

This gets made frequently here in the summer. It is a great recipe when you have a small amount of several vegetables from the garden.

1 package angel hair pasta (1 lb)
6 large ripe tomatoes diced
1 head of garlic
olive oil
grated Romano cheese
fresh basil
tiny bit of lemon rind

A little of this and a little of that from your garden vegetables, diced, about 2 cups worth.

Cut the top off of the head of garlic.

Place the garlic head in a small pan with about 1/4″ of olive oil and bake at 350′ for 1 hour or until soft.

Boil water for pasta.

Put diced tomatoes, vegetables, basil, lemon rind, olive oil in a pan.

Squeeze the soft garlic out of the head and add to the pan with the vegetables.

Heat vegetables while pasta is cooking until just warmed.

Serve with grated Parmesan or Romano cheese.
