This recipe works for you in so many ways.
Not only is this a dish where you can throw in all the leftovers in your fridge, it’s delicious too!
I like to load my pasta with as many veggies as possible, and since it’s spring, it’s the perfect time to put in those spring vegetables you’ve been missing all winter.
There’s nothing like a sprig of spring asparagus, it tastes different in the spring. It’s more flavorful, the stalk is generally huge from growing for so long, and it just feels like spring when you’ve thrown it in.
Asparagus is obviously my favorite pairing, but another great ingredient is snow peas, they add a little bit of a crunch to the pasta dish. And I also love to throw in edamame if I have some, or carrots, really anything that’s in the fridge. Lots of the time I even add some kale. You have all kinds of options.
So not only are you getting your veggies in, you get to eat something delicious!
And who doesn’t want to eat pasta all day, everyday?
