Pasta Primavera With Kale, Zucchini, and Carrots image

This dish is healthy and full of flavor! I keep everything organic and fresh!I crave a hearty noodle dish from time to time, but hate all the refined carbs and loaded calories. For a vegan twist, omit the cream and use vegan cheese.

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup shredded carrot
1 cup finely chopped kale
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup chopped onion
4 cups crushed tomatoes
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2-1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, to taste
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh herb (such as parsley, basil, and oregano)
1 medium zucchini, cut length wise into 1/4 inch portions (roughly 8 pieces)
1 cup breadcrumbs, mixed with
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup cream
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
salt
1 (16 ounce) package linguine, of choice (I use a quinoa blend)

Steps:

  • Start by cooking pasta per package directions and set aside to drain and cool. Add EVOO to pasta if you like to keep it from getting sticky.
  • In a large 3-4 qt pan, heat EVOO to medium heat and sauté onions, red pepper and garlic together until soft.
  • Add crushed tomatoes, then carrots and kale.
  • Stir and let it come to a slow boil, then turn the heat down to medium low for about 30 minutes.
  • Start on the zucchini. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Coat each side of the zucchini with breadcrumb mixture and place on a oven proof dish. Use an oil spray on dish to keep it from sticking. Bake for 10-15 minutes.
  • Add fresh herbs to red sauce, and let it cook for another 15 minutes.
  • Finish primavera sauce with cream and add salt to taste.
  • Toss pasta with red sauce to coat. Top each serving with 2 pieces of baked zucchini and grated parmesean cheese and enjoy!

This recipe is a great starting point, but I would recommend adding some additional seasonings to taste.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dish turned out bland and boring.

This dish was a disappointment. The sauce was watery and the vegetables were overcooked.

I'm not a huge fan of kale, but I loved it in this dish! The bitterness of the kale was perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the carrots and zucchini.

This recipe was a lifesaver! I had a bunch of leftover vegetables in my fridge and didn't know what to do with them. This dish was the perfect way to use them up and it was delicious!

The sauce was a little bland for my taste, but the vegetables were cooked perfectly and the pasta was al dente. I'll definitely try this again with a different sauce.

I made this for dinner last night and it was so easy and quick! I used whole wheat pasta and added some grilled chicken for protein. The whole family loved it and it's definitely going into my regular rotation.

This pasta primavera was a hit! The vegetables were fresh and flavorful, and the sauce was creamy and delicious. I added a bit of extra garlic and red pepper flakes for a little kick, and it turned out perfect.
