Summer Veggie Spaghetti?

Yes, Friends! I still celebrate summer. I just hate to see it is coming to an end. We had the best days ever on this past weekend. Camping, nature, beach, cooking over the fire, fun, lots of laughter and surprisingly not many spiders.:-) So when we came back from our wonderful camping trip my refrigerator was empty. While I stood in line in a grocery store, this fantastic looking dish caught my eye on a magazine cover. Or maybe I should say it looked something like this:-)I did not have time to read the recipe as the line was moving . On the way home I could not think of anything else but this gorgeous bowl of spaghetti. Luckily I had veggies in my bags and in my refrigerator and of course some whole wheat spaghetti in my pantry. This is really  all you need to get this healthy veggie dish together and maybe 20 minutes of your time.

I used green beans, fresh corn, broccoli, tomatoes and carrots.

One of my favorite summer veggies is corn. Oh, how I love the sweet and crunchy corn on a cob.

I hate to see summer go away as I love all these healthy veggies. My boys only eat broccoli, corn and  carrots (no green beans) but for some reason they don’t like the veggies mixed with pasta. I had to serve the pasta and the veggies  for them separate. Oh well:-)

Hope you will give this easy dish a try.
