    Herb Parmesan Vegetable Penne Pasta

    Saute vegetables in 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic, season with salt pepper and herbs till desired softness, we like them soft around 6-8 minutes. Set aside.

    1 box penne pasta or pasta of choice

    Boil salt water for pasta of choice. Cook pasta and set aside.

    Sauce

    In the meantime make herb parmesan sauce.

    In a large fry pan, melt 2 tablespoon butter, 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil saute 2 cloves of minced garlic in pan on medium heat. Lower heat and add 1 1/2 cups chicken broth. Season with salt pepper and a pinch of rosemary, add 1 teaspoon chopped parsley. Add 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese. Stir all together. Add sauteed vegetables to this sauce. Serve over cooked pasta toss with more parmesan. Great over rice too.

        Oh, Claudia - I'm so glad I've come to know you and your wonderful deliciousness! LOL - This is simply wonderful. I love to add fresh veggies to all of my pasta dishes - I learned this early on when I tried to sneak vegetables into my stepchildren's meals - and now my mom, who is suddenly anti-healthy-eating ... go figure! Thank you!
