Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup pasta (your choice) Cook according to package instructions.
  • 2 cups vegetables (whatever you have on hand) Use any leftover veggies.
  • 1 cup cream or an alternative Can substitute with Greek yogurt or dairy-free alternatives.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder For flavoring.
  • Salt and pepper To taste.
  • Grated cheese (for topping) Optional, for a cheesy finish.

Method
 

Cooking Pasta and Veggies
  1. Boil the pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
  2. In a separate pan, heat a little olive oil and sauté the vegetables until tender.
Making the Sauce
  1. Stir in the cream and garlic powder into the sautéed veggies and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
  2. Combine the cooked pasta and veggies together, and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Top it off with grated cheese if desired.

Notes

For an extra kick, add red pepper flakes. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge, or freeze for about a month. When reheating, add a splash of cream to keep it luscious.
