Ingredients

  • 1 Box Spiral pasta (or any type of "meaty" pasta
  • 2 to 3 T Olive oil
  • 4 to 6 Cloves Garlic Minced
  • 1 Small Onion Chopped
  • 1 or 2 Zucchini Chopped
  • 10 Spears Asparagus Chopped
  • 4 Carrots Chopped
  • 1 Large Handfull Snow peas Chopped
  • 1 or 2 Fresh tomatoes Chopped
  • 1/2 Cup Grated Vegan Parmesan
  • Salt and Pepper

Instructions

  • In a large pot, cook pasta per instructions to al dente.
  • In a wok or large fry pan, add the oil and the garlic.  Saute the garlic until fragrant (about 2 minutes).
  • Add the carrots and asparagus to the wok and stir fry for 3 to 4 minutes.  These veggies take the longest to cook.  Add some salt and pepper.
  • Next add the onions and the snow peas and stir fry for another 3 to 4 minutes.  Add some more salt and pepper to taste. 
  • Finally add the zucchini and stir fry until the veggies are cooked but still nice and crisp.
  • Add the cooked pasta to the veggies and mix in the grated parmesan.  You can add more salt and pepper or parmesan to taste.
  • Cook for just a minute or 2 and serve immediately.  Top with the fresh tomatoes and some grated parmesan. 

Notes

NOTE:  You can add a protein like tofu or sometimes I add Gardein Chick'n Strips.  I fry both of these with a little garlic salt and cut into bite size pieces.
NOTE:  The recipe lends itself to almost any veggie you have in the fridge.  I listed the ones I typically use and like.
