The ingredients for Skinny Pasta Primavera are:

Dried spinach pasta - 1/4 pound (4 oz.)
2 tbsp butter
(can replace with olive oil for a different flavor)

1/4 cup white wine (optional)

1/4 cup chopped onions
1 cup sliced zucchini
(approximately 1 medium)
1 cup sliced yellow (summer) squash
(approximately 1 medium)
1 cup broccoli florets
(trim as much stem off as possible)

1 pound (1 cup when trimmed) fresh asparagus

Here is how you make Skinny Pasta Primavera:

Start with: Bring water to a boil; add dried spinach pasta. We use about 1/4 pound (dry) for two people. While the pasta is boiling, in a spearate pan, start with: 2 tbsp butter (can replace with olive oil for a different flavor)1/4 cup white wine (optional)Add to heated pan: 1/4 cup chopped onions, sautee until soft, then add: 1 cup sliced zucchini (approximately 1 medium)1 cup sliced yellow (summer) squash (approximately 1 medium)1 cup broccoli florets (trim as much stem off as possible)Stir until coated, then cover pan and cook over low-medium heat until veggies soften (however you like them). Once the veggies reach the desired done-ness, remove from the pan, leaving as much of the butter/olive oil/white wine behind. Turn up the heat to medium, add the trimmed asparagus to the pan, sautee asparagus until bright green. About this time, the pasta will be done. Drain pasta. Serve in pasta bowls, with pasta on the bottom, then the sauteed veggies and aspagragus on the side. I season with roasted garlic seasalt (that I got at Costco) and freshly ground pepper. We have also served this as a side dish to broiled tilapia and salmon which is brushed with olive oil and roasted garlic salt and pepper. Feel free to experiment by adding whatever veggie is in season!This recipe serves 2 and provides ( we think) at least 3 vegetable servings - maybe more, depnding how carried away you get! Please be aware that sizes and cooking times are approximate - your cook time may be less and you may need to reduce heat - I am cooking at nearly 6000 feet above sea level.
