Primafeta Pasta

A vegetarian delight! This pasta dish features crisp vegetables, pine nuts, and feta cheese.

Ingredients:
6–8 oz. medium shells, cooked al dente
1/4 cup pine nuts
3 cloves minced garlic
1 small onion, diced
1–2 carrots, sliced thin
asparagus (1/2 bunch)
fresh spinach
cherry or grape tomatoes
feta cheese
olive oil
salt and pepper to taste


Directions: Saute onion, garlic, carrot, pine nuts, and asparagus in olive on medium–medium high heat. Once the asparagus begins to soften, add in the pasta (I sometimes add a bit more olive oil so that the pasta fries up a bit.) Cook 5 minutes. Add in feta crumbles and spinach and cook until the spinach begins to wilt. Add the tomatoes in for the last 2–3 minutes of cooking.
