PASTA AL FRESCO

Preparation

1. I prepare all vegetables and keep them in storage containers in fridge. I roast large garlic heads by drizzling with olive oil and wrap in heavy foil ( I sometimes add a favorite herb before wraping to increase flavor). I roast in 325 oven for about an hour and half.(usually when I bake potatoes I include several foil packages) this keeps in fridge for quite awhile if packaged well. I a large skillet over med heat I add to 1/2 of olive oil the vegetables and saute till crisp tender. Adding 4 of the garlic cloves (just squeeze out the garlic it is a wonderful paste) and toss well. set aside and add the remainder of the the oil and garlic to skillet. toss till heated well and then toss with half the cheese transfer to pasta bowls. I put the veggies back in the hot skillet and toss with 1/3 of remaining cheese. top pasta and finish with remainder cheese. this dish changes with each veggie change or herb added Be creative !
