Red, yellow and green peppers lend a pleasant sweetness to Sandy's suggested side dish, Three-Pepper Pasta Toss. Ideal alongside the savory chops, this lightly coated medley complements most any meal. It's simple, looks good and tastes wonderful, she comments. I keep the ingredients on hand because Jeff likes it as a meatless main course.
Ingredients:
8 ounces uncooked penne pasta
1 each large sweet red pepper, yellow pepper and green pepper, chopped
1 large red onion, cut into wedges
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
Directions:
1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, cook peppers and onion in oil until crisp-tender. Drain pasta; add to vegetable mixture. Stir in the vinegar, sugar, salt, basil and pepper. Cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 6 servings.
