Primavera with Penne Pasta ( Step by Step)
When ever I go to Italian Restaurant, I always end up in the same confused state what to order. As I love EggPlant/Brinjal/Baingan/Vankaya (????? ) , I have tried Eggplant Parmesan several times, (as a person who loves to try different foods), I am bored with it and like to try different variety. The problem is, most of the Italian restaurants do not put lot of options in vegetarian choices. I have tried Brick Oven Baked Vegetables Pizza some times and love it. Once at Macaroni Grill, I have seen this Primavera on the Menu, which described lot of vegetables in it, since then this is another pasta I fall for.
Primavera with Penne Pasta
Primavera with Penne Pasta I do make lot of Italian dishes at home ( for hubby), but mostly I use store bought sauces (Marinara or Alfredo), after knowing how much cream and cheese they use in those, I have started looking for options to make sauces from scratch at home. And the first try of it is this recipe and end results is Flavorful, Light and Comforting.
Primavera means 'season of spring' and hence this dish is usually cooked with main focus of spring fresh vegetables, with light flavors, aromatic herbs and bright colors. Though the spring weather is here since the second week of Feb in Dallas, now let me welcome the official Spring with this Sensational Dish.
