Pasta Primavera

Italian Dinner Recipes

1/2 lb. spaghetti or other pasta 1 c. broccoli 1 1/2 c. snow peas 1/2 c. red pepper 3 Tbsp. butter 3 Tbsp. flour 2 c. milk salt and pepper to taste

The vegetables get cooked separately in this version, a nice choice for a finicky family! Cook pasta according to package directions. In a large skillet, melt butter. Add flour and combine to make a paste (roux). Gradually add milk. Toss pasta in sauce. In a separate skillet, heat 1 Tbsp. oil. Add vegetables and sauté until crisp tender. Serve over sauced pasta.
