Spaghetti Primavera

Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Primavera means "spring" in Italian. Fresh vegetables are a mark of the spring harvest. The lightness of the sauteed vegetables are a nice contrast to the warmth of the spring.

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 small zucchini, shredded
2 medium carrots, peeled and shredded
1 large red bell pepper, cut into small thin strips
2 shallots, minced
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

2. Meanwhile, heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat. Cook zucchini, carrots, bell pepper, and shallots 5 minutes, or until tender, stirring frequently.
3. Drain pasta. Add to skillet; toss with vegetable mixture, adding half of the cheese while tossing. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with remaining cheese.
