Ingredients:
1 cup of penne, boiled until al dente 1 bunch of asparagus, trimmed and chopped 1 medium zucchini, halved and chopped 1/4-1/2 cup prepared pesto Pesto 1 bunch of basil (about 2 cups) 1/4 cup pine nuts or walnuts 2 garlic cloves, chopped 2 tbsp Vegan Parmesan or Nutritional Yeast salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Cook your pasta according to the package directions. As soon as you put your pasta in the water (because the pasta I use usually takes about 12-13 minutes) I start sauteing the vegetables. I like to use a light oil to saute them in (usually grapeseed or safflower). Once the pasta is done boiling, drain and add into the pan of sauteing vegetables. Toss together and pour into a bowl. Now let's make the pesto! Blend all of the above ingredients in a blender or food processor. While blending, stream in about 1/4 to 1/3 cup olive oil. Pour enough in to reach your desired consistency. Toss with your pasta and vegetables and enjoy! http://www.vegan-heartland.com/2011/01/vegetable-penne-pesto.html
