Quick meal--pasta susanna

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 each Cooked pasta (I like
Rotini)
1 each Chopped vegetables (i.e.
Mushrooms, Bell Peppers,
Broccoli, Zucchini/Summer
Squash)
1 each Spinach
1 each Onions
1 each Garlic
1 each Veggie broth
1 can Diced tomatoes and broth

Directions

In large non-stick skillet, saute onions & mushrooms & garlic. After a while, add spinach if frozen. Wait until spinach thaws, then add your other veggies. You may want to add some veggie broth. Before they're quite done, add 1 can (more if you like tomatoes, or if you're feeding lots (3 or more) people) of diced tomatoes with their sauce. Stir until tomatoes start to warm up, then add the cooked pasta. Stir all together. Spice as desired. (Basil, oregano, and dill is good.) Don't forget freshly ground pepper.

This is quick, although it does use two pans. It really impressed my roommate the first time I made it. I like it because I can use lots of veggies, and it isn't terribly tomatoey. It's so much lighter than pouring regular tomato sauce on your pasta.

Source: I must confess, I adapted this recipe from my aunt, who used olive *il and barely any veggies. That's why I call it Pasta Susanna instead of Pasta Donna. :)
