Summer Pasta

Originally uploaded by glue&glitter.

Thanks to an awesome trip to the farmers market, our fridge is full of local and organic produce! It begged to be turned into pasta sauce.

1/2 package pasta
1/4 c olive oil
1 summer squash, cut into matchsticks
1 c green beans, halved
2-4 cloves garlic, minced
1 t Italian seasoning
1/2 t white pepper
soy sauce, to taste
1/4 c water, if necessary

Set your water to boil while you prep your veggies. Then, dump in the pasta and cook according to the package directions. While that boils…

Heat the olive oil over medium and add the squash, green beans and garlic. Sprinkle on the seasoning and pepper, tossing to coat. Cook for 3-4 minutes, then add the soy sauce, tossing again. If the pan is looking a little dry at this point, add some of the water. Let veggies simmer for about 5 minutes more. By now, your pata should be all ready!

Dole out bowls of pasta and top with the veggies. Serve!
