Pasta Primavera
In anticipation of spring, we enjoy a light(er) pasta primavera. Many
enjoy this dish on the first day of the season, but it just hasn't felt
like spring yet. It was over 70 outside today, Robin took the kids to the
park, so we felt it best to have this before it's too late.
We don't even have all of the fresh ingredients
typically found in this dish. We use this as an opportunity to make
the meal more our own.
