Pasta With Stir-Fry Veggies – Vegetarian Recipe
Gardening season is coming to an end. I have picked off the remainder of my free tomatoes and free peppers, as well as basil leaves and chives, and created a quick and simple meal out of my fresh veggies.
Nothing can be simpler than some pasta and stir-fry veggies, so that is what I decided to prepare.
You may like to sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top of the veggies, and serve it with warm garlic bread.
Serves 2-4.
