How To Make Quick Veggie Pasta

2. While the pasta is cooking, get your veggies ready. Chop your veggies into small pieces. Size and shape are up to you but keep in mind, smaller pieces cook faster.
3. Heat your olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped veggies, garlic, salt and saut�� them until tender.
4. Add the cooked pasta, mix everything well until the pasta is fully coated with the veggies. Sprinkle the grated cheese on top and let it melt.
5. And voila! Your Quick Veggie Pasta is ready to serve.
