Veggie Pasta

It's hard to find time to cook when there is a baby tugging at your pants all evening. Ellie usually gets up from her afternoon nap at 4 or 4:30. I'll be honest we usually don't eat until 7, and I usually don't start cooking until Jared gets home at 5:30 so he can wrangle Ellie. Any who, this is a really fast, cheap, delicious meal for busy week nights.

Ingredients
White cooking wine
1 zucchini
1/2 red bell pepper
10 small mushrooms
1/4 white onion
2 cloves of garlic
2Tbls butter
Oil
3/4. Box pasta (I used Great Value whole wheat)
Salt, pepper, basil to taste

Sauté garlic, onions on med heat. Add veggie, cook until tender. Add butter, let melt and add white wine. Let it come to a boil and and lower heat.

I started cooking the veggies once the pasta water was boiling. This was a perfect amount of time for the pasta to cook and veggies and have them ready at the same time.

Serve immediately topped with some parmesan cheese.
