Pasta and Veggies with Gorgonzola Cream Sauce

Yes, I caved.  The grilling season might almost be officially over...soo lets catch up on carbs! 







Ingredients:

1 lb pasta (penne)
(I always use the whole-wheat pasta)
Olive oil
1 large clove garlic (minced)
1/2 bundle of asparagus
1 large head of broccoli
3/4 cup frozen peas
1 can artichokes (in brine)
2 cups fresh diced Roma tomatoes
1 pint heavy cream
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
fresh cracked pepper


Boil water in large pot.  Once water is boiling heat olive oil with garlic and pepper.  After you add pasta to water, sauté asparagus, broccoli and artichokes in pan with olive oil and garlic.  Once heated through and pretty much cooked, add peas and tomatoes and toss with other vegetables.  Push veggies to the sides and add cream to center, once warmed through add Parmesan cheese and Gorgonzola cheese.  Toss all together.  Drain pasta and add to pan.  Coat the pasta with sauce and veggies.  Enjoy!
