PASTA E VERDURA

By Jack Bishop
William Morrow Cookbooks - 1996

This is the first thing I've made from this book; the recipe caught my eye when I was idly looking for a veggie sauce to use with fresh pasta.

Like most veggie sauces, this is very simple to make, a bit of slicing and chopping (leeks, bell peppers, and tomatoes) then some easy cooking.

A very light, tasty sauce. I thought this would be very nice as a separate pasta course (the way it really ought to be but rarely is at our house) followed by a protein-based main course.

Served over fresh linguine.

Good stuff. I made all the sauce for two people's worth of pasta (about 7oz cascareccia). It would be awful skimpy sauce-wise to use this amount for a full pound of pasta. Very tasty, and easy.

A tasty, pretty pasta sauce. There's a bit of prep, but should be done in less that half an hour if using dried pasta.

Prepping the artichokes is a bit fussy, but once this is done the sauce comes together lickety-split. Very tasty.
