Cooking Pasta

  1. 1

    Boil the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Preparing Vegetables

    Chop the Vegetables

    While the pasta is cooking, wash and chop the bell pepper, zucchini, carrot, and broccoli into bite-sized pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes.

  2. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the chopped vegetables and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender but still crisp.

Combining Ingredients
