My Leftovers Pasta Primavera

I contemplated calling this the “you better cook everything you have left in the fridge because you’re going out of town for 2 days and you don’t want it to go to waste pasta” but that was too long so I just called it “my leftovers pasta primavera”

We’re going to San Diego tomorrow for one night and since I always buy and eat the freshest fruits and vegetables I couldn’t let all this good stuff go to waste. So I just kept chopping and sautéing everything in the fridge, combined it with some left over plain cooked pasta, topped it with cheese and popped it in the oven.

Sorry it’s not any fancier than that. You’ll definitely notice some ingredients from other blogs this week. So, that’s always fun.

Leftover Ingredients:
Plain Rigatoni Pasta
Red, Yellow, & Orange bell pepper
Roma tomatoes
Mushrooms
BBQ Tempeh Bacon
Quatro formaggio cheese from trader joes

Grab some olive oil and seasonings and voila dinner is ready!

Note: we couldn’t finish it all so we have a delicious dish leftover for when we return from our mini vacay! Score! Leftovers becoming leftovers!
