This recipe is versatile. You can add other favorite vegetables, if desired, or eliminate the prosciutto to be vegetarian. Main dish or side dish, it's your choice.

How To Make fresh vegetables with fettuccine

Step 1

Heat oil in a 4-5 quart pan, over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft (about 7 minutes). Add garlic and mushrooms; cook, stirring, until all liquid has evaporated (about 5 minutes). Add tomatoes and basil; continue to cook, until mixture is thickened (about 10 more minutes), stirring occasionally.

Step 2

Meanwhile, following package directions, cook fettuccine in boiling water, until barely tender to bite; drain well. Place in a large, shallow serving bowl, and keep warm.
Step 3

Add carrots to sauce and cook for 5 minutes. Add squashes (yes, zucchini is a squash); continue to cook, until vegetables are barely tender to bite (about 3 more minutes).
Step 4

Spoon sauce over pasta, and top with cheese and prosciutto. Makes 8 servings.
