One Pot Veggie Pasta
4 servings
servings30 minutes
total timeIngredients
2 cloves garlic
1 yellow onion
2 carrots
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 zucchini
1 red bell pepper
1/2 lb. rotini (not cooked)
1/2 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried oregano
2 cups vegetable broth
24 oz. pasta sauce
4 oz. mozzarella, shredded (optional)
Directions
Mince the garlic, dice the onion, and slice the carrots. Add the garlic, onion, and carrots to a large pot with the olive oil. Sauté over medium heat until the onions are soft and translucent.
While the rest of the vegetables are sautéing, dice the zucchini and bell pepper.
Once the bell pepper and zucchini are diced, add them to the pot along with the rotini, basil, oregano, and vegetable broth. Stir to combine. It's okay if the broth doesn't fully submerge the pasta.
Place a lid on the pot, turn the heat up to medium-high, and allow the broth to come up to a boil.
Once the broth reaches a full boil, give the pasta a quick stir, replace the lid, then turn the heat down to medium-low. Let the pasta simmer over medium-low, stirring occasionally and always replacing the lid, for about 10 minutes, or until the pasta is tender.
Once the pasta is tender, add the pasta sauce to the pot and stir to combine. Top with the shredded cheese then place the lid back on the pot. Let the pasta heat for a few minutes, or just until the cheese is melted. Serve hot!
