Pasta Primavera

Instructions

1. 1

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the penne pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. 2

   While the pasta is cooking, slice the zucchini, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and carrot into thin strips.

3. 3

   In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic cloves, minced, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

4. 4

   Add the sliced vegetables to the skillet and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.

5. 5

   Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the vegetables. Toss everything together to combine well.

6. 6

   Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the pasta and vegetables. Toss again to evenly distribute the cheese.

7. 7

   Serve the Pasta Primavera warm, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
