GARDEN VEGETABLE PRIMAVERA
Although I enjoy this dish throughout the year, it's even more special when I use my garden to supply the vegetables. A splash of white wine and a sprinkle of fresh basil really add flavor. I have also roasted the vegetables and mixed in chicken breasts with scrumptious results. -Carly Curtin, Ellicott City, Maryland

Steps:
- Heat gas grill to med. high or prepare charcoal grill. Using 2 skewers side by side pierce red onion slices all the way through to prevent them from falling apart on the grill. This makes turning them easier too. Brush eggplant, zucchini, mushroom caps & onion with EVOO & season with salt & pepper. Place on grill & cover. Cook vegetables on both sides until golden brown and tender (approximately 5-6 minutes per side depending on heat & thickness of vegetable). You will probably need to do this in a few batches - some vegees may take longer than others so watch carefully. If they brown too quickly lower the heat or move to a cool side of the grill. Remove grilled vegetables to platter as they are cooked. Brush asparagus with EVOO, salt & pepper and place on an outdoor grill pan and cook approx. 10 minutes or until tender, shaking pan often. Alternatively roast asparagus in a 425 deg. oven for 15 - 20 minutes until golden and tender. Chop all vegetables into bite size pieces and set aside. Heat 1/4 cup EVOO in a saute pan until hot but not smoking. Add garlic & stir for 15 seconds - do not burn garlic. Add cherry tomatoes, salt & pepper to taste and cook until tomatoes have softened and started to caramelize. Add roasted pepper pieces and heat through. Increase heat to high and add white wine & chicken broth. Cook on high for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn off heat and stir in fresh herbs. Cover pan to keep warm. Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve one cup of cooking water before draining. Place pasta in a large bowl and add tomato & pepper mixture, chopped grilled vegetables and Parmesan cheese. Add pasta water a little at a time if necessary to loosen sauce to your liking. Serve with additional cheese on the side.

Tips:
- Prep your vegetables in advance: Cut and chop all your vegetables before you start cooking to save time.
- Use a large skillet or wok: This will help ensure that the vegetables cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Cook the vegetables in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan, which can make them steam instead of sauté.
- Season the vegetables well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
- Add a splash of acidity: A squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of vinegar can help brighten up the flavors in the dish.
- Thicken the sauce: If you want a thicker sauce, add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to the pan and cook until thickened.
- Serve over rice or noodles: Vegetable primavera is a great dish to serve over rice or noodles. You can also serve it with a side of bread or pita bread.
