This fantastic blend of fresh vegetables, fire roasted tomatoes and peppers, and pasta can be modified to include any seasonal vegetables. It's easy, healthy and delicious! You can find fire-roasted tomatoes and fire-roasted peppers at most grocery store olive bars, including Whole Foods. If you don't have access to these, you can make your own, substitute sun-dried tomatoes, or substitute fresh versions. The beautiful thing about veggies is that there's no right way to do things! You can also substitute basil or oregano paste or powder for the fresh version, if you need to - but fresh is best! Ingredients:
