Pasta alla Primavera brings a burst of spring flavors to your table with vibrant vegetables and a light touch of olive oil. It’s a perfect choice for a quick, wholesome meal tonight!

1

Begin by boiling a large pot of salted water. Once it's rolling, add 200 grams of pasta and cook according to package instructions, usually about 8 to 10 minutes.

2

While the pasta is cooking, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

3

Add 2 minced cloves of garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.

4

Chop the zucchini, bell pepper, and carrot into bite-sized pieces. Add these vegetables to the skillet and sauté for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until they are just tender.

5

Add 100 grams of green peas to the skillet and stir to combine, cooking for an additional 2 minutes.

6

Once the pasta is cooked, reserve a cup of pasta water and then drain it. Immediately add the drained pasta to the skillet with the vegetables.

7

Toss everything together, adding the reserved pasta water as needed to help create a light sauce.

8

Finally, season the dish with salt and pepper to taste and garnish with 50 grams of grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
