Tips:

  • Prep your vegetables in advance: This will save you time when you're cooking. Aim for 3-4 cups washed and chopped veggies.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: The more vegetables you use, the more flavorful your pasta will be. Try a mix of hearty vegetables like broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers, and softer vegetables like zucchini, spinach, and mushrooms.
  • Don't overcook your vegetables: They should be tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked veggies will make your pasta mushy, so avoid cooking them for too long.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what will bring your pasta dish together. You can use a simple tomato sauce, a creamy pesto sauce, or a spicy arrabiata sauce.
  • Garnish your pasta: A sprinkling of fresh herbs, grated Parmesan cheese, or a drizzle of olive oil will add a touch of extra flavor and color to your dish.
