Ingredients

2 cups mini pasta (such as wheels, penne, bowties or spirals)
1 tablespoon vegetable or canola oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 cup grated carrots
1/2 cup finely chopped broccoli
1/2 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup packed fresh baby spinach
2 - 3 tablespoons lemon juice (about 1 small lemon)
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

Cook the pasta according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking liquid before draining.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, carrots, broccoli, and peas and saute another 3-5 minutes. Add the spinach and cook for 1 minute more.
Add the vegetables to the cooked pasta, toss with the lemon juice, parmesan cheese and reserved pasta water to combine thoroughly.
