Tita's Pasta Primavera

Rafi's mom sent me this really great recipe. I made it last night and will definitely be making it again. First I'll post her recipe then I'll comment on how I made a few changes.


Tita's Pasta Primavera

1 cup of whole milk
6 Tbs of margarine 250 grams of spaguettini uncooked 4 cups of brocolli
2 peppers (green, red of yellow) cut in big pieces
2 cups of frozen petit pois (cooked)
2 tsp of ground basil 2 garlics (cut in small pieces)
1/2 cup of parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp of salt 1/8 tsp of black pepper

In a pan, pour 3 cups of water, the milk and the margarine.
Add the spaguettini and let them boil for 5 minutes.
Stir every once in a while.
Add the brocolli, green pepper, petit pois, garlic and basil and cook in medium heat for 8 minutes until the brocolli is done.
Sprinkle the cheese, salt and black pepper.
Serve immediately.

I didn't have broccoli or peppers, so I replaced all the vegetables with 2 cups of frozen mixed vegetables and 1 cup of peas. I also wanted to add some protein to the dish, so I cooked up some chopped venison summer sausage and added that. It was delish! Next time I might add some parsley to top it off.
