This spaghetti primavera is all about letting fresh vegetables shine in a simple butter sauce.

Mushrooms, broccoli florets, bell peppers, and ripe tomatoes get a quick saute with garlic and oregano before being tossed with hot spaghetti.

A generous shower of Parmesan pulls everything together.

It’s the kind of easy weeknight dinner that makes eating your veggies feel like a treat, not a chore.

Kitchen Tips

  • Use the freshest vegetables you can find. Farmers market produce in peak season will take this from good to outstanding.
  • Don’t overcook the broccoli. You want it tender-crisp so it keeps its bright green color and a little bite.
  • Toss the pasta with the vegetables while the spaghetti is still steaming hot so it absorbs all that buttery, garlicky goodness.
