    Holy cow! August has flown by. Can you believe it? We are in summer’s last little home stretch! Labor Day is next week. Of course this means pumpkin everything on the horizon and my basic girl heart is swelling with excitement. But it also means that gardens and farmer’s markets are chock full of all the delicious end of summer veggies. Zucchini, corn, bell peppers, tomatoes.

    We are lucky. We live in the country surrounded by farmland and pick your own stands. I grew up picking all my own and fruit and vegetables all summer and fall long and still do. I just love when my favorite stand brims with all the veggies. There is nothing like a vegetable straight from the source. They taste totally different and way better than store bought veggies.

    The glorious summer veggies

    Is it weird that I wax poetic about farm to table food? Oh well. It’s who I am.

    I just can’t take the gorgeousness of those cherry tomatoes

    So this time of year, I love taking advantage of the abundance from the farm stands. I make things like this end of summer cheesy vegetarian corn chowder and caprese zoodle bowls to use all that freshness in my meals. And that’s what this end of summer harvest pasta is. It’s a delicious way to use up all the goodness. And it gets me my pasta fix which is so important to this preggo.

    This pasta is flexible. I literally included every veggie my local pick your own had on its stand. So I used zucchini, corn, eggplant, bell peppers, and cherry tomatoes. Don’t like one of those veggies? No big deal, omit it and use what you like instead.

    The prep is a little more involved than some of my other meals, but it’s definitely worth it. And honestly the most involved part? The veggie cutting. I sliced everything up but the corn and tossed it in a cast iron skillet with white wine, butter, olive oil, lemon, and garlic.

    Then you have more options. Either bake it all in oven until the tomatoes blister and the veggies or soft or cook it on a stove or over a grill. For the corn, I baked it using my no shucking method then just threw it on the grill to get the pretty char lines.

    While the veggies get happy, boil up a big pot of spaghetti or linguine. When the veggies are done, serve them over the noodles and toss with Parmesan cheese, mini mozzarella balls, and fresh basil.

        This looks great. I’ll shave to sub Canada chunks for the sprouts though or dear hubby will not eat it.
