Pasta Primavera With A Gorgonzola Twist
This is one of my favorite pasta dishes. It is somehow light and healthy tasting while still satisfying the part of me that wants something rich and creamy. I use tomatos, broccoli and peas (my favorite veggies) but i'm sure it would be just as successful with other spring-time vegetables!!
Steps
In a wok or very large pan , saute the onion with garlic , olive oil , 1t balsamic , sugar and lots of pepper on med-low for 15min or until caramelized.
Meanwhile , cook the pasta according to package and reserve 1 / 2 cup pasta water.
Add the broccoli to the onions and a few tablespoons of the pasta water.
Cook until the broccoli is a few minutes from done , adding more water as it boils away.
Add peas and tomato and cook for 3 more minutes.
Add the pasta , another 3 tb water and cheese.
Sprinkle with remaining balsamic , toss and serve.
