Ingredients

  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
  • 3 cups diced vegetables (snap peas, green beans, summer squash, broccoli, cauliflower)
  • 2 cups shredded leafy greens
  • 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
  • 8 ounces peeled shrimp
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 6 ounces tri-color spiral pasta
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh basil

Method

  • Put 2 quarts salted water on high heat for cooking the pasta. While the water heats, prep all the vegetables. (If using frozen shrimp, thaw them).
  • When the water boils, start cooking pasta according to package directions. Drain and keep warm if done before the vegetables.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high. Add mushrooms, onion, and bell pepper, stirring occasionally.
  • When the mushrooms are tender, add the vegetables, continuing to stir.
  • When the vegetables reach the hot-crisp state, add the kale, tomatoes, shrimp, and garlic. Cover and reduce heat to low.
  • When kale and shrimp are cooked, add drained pasta to the vegetable mixture. Add basil, and stir to combine.
