Pasta Primavera Recipe

Giada De Laurentiis' Pasta Primavera recipe, from Everyday Italian on Food Network, is bursting with roasted vegetables and Parmesan.Pasta Primavera sounds soooo much better than what this actually is:


Clean out the Fridge Pasta. I used to hate pasta primavera because back when I was a vegetarian it seemed to be the only thing available when I went out to eat (kind of like the way I feel about salad and grilled veggies now that I am a vegan). Hmm. That tells you how long ago I was a vegetarian; I actually had the time and money to out to a restaurant. Anyway, despite Son #1's protests about the presence of mushrooms, this dish went over very well. It's not overly saucy, so increase the flour and soy milk if you want more.

INGREDIENTS
Serves 6
- 300g capellini, cooked
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 red pepper, seeded and diced
- 1 large carrot, cut into thin sticks
- 8oz sliced mushrooms
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups frozen peas, thawed
- generous tbsp of flour
- 1 1/2 to 2 cups soy milk
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- salt and pepper to taste

METHOD
1. While pasta is cooking, heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Saute onions for 3 mins, until beginning to soften. Add red pepper and carrot and saute for 5 -7 mins, until carrots are starting to get tender. Add mushrooms and garlic and cook until mushrooms have released their water.
2. Add peas and heat through. Sprinkle flour over veggies and mix well. Add 1 1/2 cups of soy milk and nutritional yeast and bring to bubbling. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
3. Drain pasta and return to the pot over medium heat. Pour sauce over top and mix well. Add more soy milk if pasta is too dry.
