Tips:

  • Cut your vegetables into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you do, the vegetables will steam instead of sauté.
  • Cook the vegetables over medium-high heat. This will help them caramelize and develop flavor.
  • Season the vegetables with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried herbs.
  • Add the pasta to the pan once the vegetables are almost tender. This will prevent the pasta from overcooking.
  • Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
  • Stir in the sauce and cheese. If you are using a store-bought sauce, be sure to heat it through before adding it to the pasta.
  • Serve the pasta and vegetable sauté immediately.
