Ingredients

8 ounces Campanelle or other curly pasta

1/2 cup olive oil

1 small onion, sliced

1 medium carrot, diced

1 small summer squash sliced into rounds

8 asparagus spears cut into 2-inch pieces

1/2 cup peas

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. black pepper

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

2 tsp. lemon juice

1 tsp. grated garlic

1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Sauté

In large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until soft, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add carrot, summer squash and asparagus. Cook 1 to 2 minutes. Add peas and cook 1 more minute. Vegetables should be just cooked and still crisp. Season with salt and pepper, remove from heat and let cool.
