This is a superb recipe for pasta and vegetables! Very flavorful!

This is an excellent dish for vegetarian eating. Very filling and light but with a depth of flavour. Time consuming to prepare but good even the day after. I would be more apt to serve this along with a meat main course like grilled chicken.
