Expert Tips

Think spring! Primavera is Italian for "spring," and dishes titled "à la primavera" usually contain fresh vegetables. Pasta primavera is the most popular dish in the primavera family.

Too many veggies to chop? Take advantage of the precut vegetables in your supermarket's produce section.

I made this as one of the pasta dishes for a bridal shower luncheon I hosted over the weekend. HUGE success ! I used lots of fresh veggies too ! It was a lot of chopping & cutting but worth it in the end! Delicious !

I enjoyed this dish. I used a frozen vegetable mix that included all the vegetables and that worked well. I just cooked them as directed on the bag and then continued with the recipe.
