Sauteed Summer Veggie Pasta
I was recently reading a pasta salad recipe in a magazine which reminded me I had to use up the rest of my veggies in my crisper drawer. I also found some spinach noodles in the cabinet and decided to make a veggie pasta dish. I ended up chopping 2 small red onions, 2 zucchini, …
