Foody Friday, quick Veggies, quick pasta

It's Foody Friday again! I have two recipes this time. Both are quick and can be adjusted to what you have, what is in season and what your taste buds like.

Italian Pasta
Pasta, any shape will do. We like Fusilli or Ziti
veggies cut into small pieces; carrots, onions, broccoli, radishes, cauliflower, grape tomatoes...
small cheese cubes; fresh mozzarella is good or Monterey Jack
Pepperoni diced ~ optional
Italian Dressing

* Cook pasta, cool under cold water. Add veggies, cheese and pepperoni. Add dressing. Mix well. Chill overnight for best flavor. Add additional dressing if needed.

Seasoned Grilled Veggies
Cut the following:
Fresh Green Beans
Fresh Asapragus
Red Potatoes
Onions
Mushrooms
Carrots

Season with:
salt & pepper
Oregano
Basil
Tosemary
Thyme
Garlic
Olive Oil

*Wrap in foil or put in a veggies grill cage.
Grill 15-25 minutes depending on the heat of your grill.

Yum! Especially the grilled veggies! I've been thinking that one of those grilling cages would be good to get, and now I'm convinced. I'd do that kind of thing every night if I could!
Thanks!
