"MOCK" FETTUCCINI PRIMAVERA
Steps:
- Slice squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon as you would a pumpkin. Then completely submerge both halves in boiling water and cook for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until the inside is tender to a fork and pulls apart in strands. (It is better to undercook if you are not sure). Remove, drain, and cool with cold water or an ice bath to stop the cooking. Then use a fork to scrape the cooked squash out of its skin, and at the same time, fluff and separate the squash into spaghetti-like strands. Discard the skin.
- Reheat the squash strands by dipping with a strainer in boiling water just before serving. Top with Primavera Sauce.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium high-heat. Add broccoli and saute for about 1 minute. Then whisk in cream and egg yolk and cook for only 1 to 2 minutes. Next, add garlic and cheese and whisk quickly just to heat through. Remove from heat and stir in the rest of the butter and the parsley. Pour over or toss with the hot spaghetti squash. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and grape tomatoes.

FETTUCCINE PRIMAVERA
Steps:
- Thoroughly sift together all-purpose flour, semolina flour, and pinch of salt. On a clean surface, make a mountain out of flour mixture then make a deep well in center. Break the eggs into the well and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Whisk eggs very gently with a fork, gradually incorporating flour from the sides of the well. When mixture becomes too thick to mix with a fork, begin kneading with your hands. Knead dough for 8 to 12 minutes, until it is smooth and supple. Dust dough and work surface with semolina as needed to keep dough from becoming sticky. Wrap dough tightly in plastic and allow it to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. Roll out dough with a pasta machine or a rolling pin to desired thickness. Run through the widest cutter on the pasta machine to make fettuccine. Bring salted water to a boil in a large pot. Cook pasta until al dente, 1 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness. Drain immediately. Add remaining oil to saute pan. Add in garlic and cook until slightly brown. Add mushrooms and cook until soft. Add other vegetables to warm through and finish cooking. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm. Place some sauteed vegetables on plate. Add some warm pasta. Top with more vegetables and more pasta. Add a few more vegetables and garnish with parsley.

FETTUCCINE PRIMAVERA
Adapted from Joy of Cooking--this is a terrific dish!! I used spinach fettuccine to make this even more beautiful. I was pretty free with the veggies--added some edamame, artichokes, spring onions and zucchini besides what's listed here. I added 25 minute prep time for all the chopping.
