Pasta with Veggies and Ranch Sauce

This is one of our favorite meals because not only is it flavorful, but very easy!  Jason got this great recipe from his mother and was the first dish he ever cooked me!  It will be a sure hit anyone can whip up!

Whole wheat pasta (Penne and Rotini Mix)

1 zucchini (thinly sliced)

1 summer squash (thinly sliced)

1 green pepper (chopped)

1 carrot (long slivers)

2 garlic cloves (minced)

olive oil

2 ranch dressing packets (NOT the dip packet)

fresh cracked pepper

Parmesan cheese (optional)

Boil pot of water, cook pasta.

In a large pan, heat olive oil, garlic and fresh cracked pepper.  When hot, add all veggies to the pan.  Add one packet of ranch seasonings.  Look on medium heat.  You don't want to cook too long.  I recommend adding the veggies to the pan once the pasta is in the water.  When the pasta is cooked, drain and add to veggies.  Add other packet of ranch, drizzle a little olive oil over pasta.  Toss and ENJOY :)
