Pasta Primavera

Description

Pasta Primavera an Italian common one pot meal.In this dish I used whole wheat penne pasta, broccolis, carrots,bell peppers and mushrooms. Some Italian seasoning can enhance it's taste but not mandatory. Salt and pepper along with Parmesan cheese makes this dish divine. Easy dish but full of nutrition. Kids friendly(to make them eat lots of veggies),quick meal with a wink. Enjoy this dish warm with extra cheese.
