Pasta primavera is a simple dish made with pasta and fresh vegetables. Many people think it's an Italian dish but it's actually an American dish which was created by chef Sirio Maccioni and two assisting chefs (the original used cream cheese). Primavera is Italian for "spring," and dishes titled "?? la primavera" usually contain fresh vegetables. Pasta primavera is the most popular dish in the primavera family.

Steps to make Pasta Primavera:
  1. While preparing vegetables set a pot of water on high to boil for pasta.
  2. Wash, dry and slice mushrooms in half and then into 1/4" slices. Slice both squashes in half then in 1/4" slices. Slice sun dried tomatoes in 1/4" slices.
  3. In a large saute/fry pan (with lid) put about 2-3 tablespoons of oil and 2 pats of butter on medium heat. Once butter melts add mushrooms, herbs and lemon pepper. The mushrooms will absorb all the oil and butter - add more butter a pat at a time until mushrooms have a good coating of butter. Turn the heat down to medium/low, cover and cook about 3-5 minutes until mushrooms start to release their juice.
  4. Add a little more olive oil, a pat of butter and stir until the butter has melted. Then add squash and sun dried tomatoes. Season again with herbs, lemon pepper and add 2 tablespoons of fresh squeezed lemon. Stir to incorporate, cover and reduce heat a little. You want to cook the squash until it's tender but hasn't lost its color about 2-3 minutes. Then take it completely off the heat; especially if you have an electric stove. Keep it covered.
  5. While preparing the vegetables if the water has come to a full boil add the penne and cook as directed on the box. I use mini penne and it takes 6 minutes for al dente. Once cooked drain into colander. Turn the stove down to medium low, wipe dry the bottom of the pot and return it to stove add about 2 tablespoons of oil, a pat of butter and heat thoroughly. (If you like, add some red pepper flakes.) Add pasta, stir to incorporate - hint: the pasta should have a sheen, if it doesn't add olive oil a little at a time, stirring in between until it just shines. Once pasta is heated through (it doesn't take long - a mere few seconds) take the pot off the burner and add as much cheese as you want.
  6. Spoon penne, spoon vegetables on top and top with a sprinkling of cheese.

Take advantage of the precut vegetables in your supermarket's produce section. Pasta Primavera "This colorful pasta and vegetable toss is a great quick meal," assures Charlotte McDaniel of Anniston, Alabama.
