SHRIMP AND PENNE PRIMAVERA
Pasta's reputation - restored! With the bad press that pasta's been getting in these carb-phobic times, you may have given it up entirely. The truth is, pasta is only a problem when the noodles make the meal. The trick is rounding it out with healthy add-ins. Here, Whole Foods Markets' executive chef Steven Petsevsky has tossed in a day's supply of vegetables; they supply lots of vitamin C and good-for-you phytochemicals - plus fiber. Shrimp adds a kick of protein, and a handful of fresh herbs makes all the flavors sparkle. Self's testers' verdict: yum.

CREAMLESS PENNE PASTA PRIMAVERA WITH OLIVE OIL AND GARLIC
Entered for safe-keeping. I am searching for a recipe closest to the creamless pasta primavera that used to lure me to a local restaurant (until the chef left). This version by Chef George Krumov seems very close. For non-vegetarians, make this a complete meal by adding (per person) 1 grilled chicken breast cut into 1-1/2-inch long strips or 1/4 pound cooked shelled shrimp (31-40 count/pound).

Steps:
- Bring 4 quarts of water with 2 tablespoons salt to a boil in a large pot and cook dry penne pasta to desired doneness per package directions. (Only 2.8 quarts -- 2.5 liters -- of water are required, but with the smaller amount of water, it would take longer for the water to return to a boil once the pasta is added.).
- Meanwhile, precook broccoli florets and carrots. If boiling in water, boil for 3-5 minutes and check for doneness with fork. Otherwise, vegetables can be steamed. Once cooked, transfer vegetables to ice water to halt cooking and preserve bright color, then drain. Set aside until step 4.
- In a large heavy skillet, heat the olive oil 1 minute or until hot and saute the onion and garlic until lightly golden, about 3 minutes.
- Add the vegetables and saute until the peppers are soft, about 2 minutes.
- Deglaze with the beef broth, if using, or just a splash (1 fluid ounce) of dry white wine.
- Add the drained penne noodles and basil and season to taste.
- Toss well and serve immediately with some freshly grated Parmesan or Grana di Padano cheese on the side.

Steps:
- Have all of your ingredients prepped and ready to go before you start cooking.
- (Start boiling the water for your pasta and cook it according to package directions.) Meanwhile, add approximately 1 Tbsp of extra virgin olive oil and 2 Tbsp fresh chopped garlic to a large,heavy,deep nonstick skillet and set the heat to medium-high.
- Add the ground meat to the pan and cook, stirring often,to brown the meat, breaking up any lumps with your spoon so it crumbles.
- Once the meat has fully cooked (about 5 minutes or so), use a slotted spoon to remove it to a small bowl and set aside; drain any remaining fat/oil from the pan and wipe dry with a paper towel (watch out for your fingers).
- Using the same skillet, add approximately 1 teaspoon more oil to the pan, along with 1 teaspoon of garlic and all of the chopped red onions.
- Saute,over medium-high heat, about 2 minutes or until onion is translucent& lightly browned, stirring often.
- (Don't forget to check on your pasta).
- As soon as the onions have softened a bit and are lightly browned, add the peppers to the pan and continue to stir about 1-2 minutes more.
- Add the zucchini and the corn, stirring to coat well.
- Add the seasoned salt and about 8 grinds of black pepper, stirring well to coat the vegetables.
- Let the veggies cook about 5 minutes- stirring often- until they are still a bit crisp, but just beginning to soften& brown.
- (Check on your pasta again).
- Return the meat to the pan, and also add all of the remaining spices (cumin,Cajun seasoning, Ancho Chile powder,and a 2-4 splashes of hot sauce to taste), stirring to combine.
- Lower the heat just a bit to medium and slowly pour in the evaporated milk, stirring constantly to blend.
- Add the sour cream and the cheese and stir until everything has blended together.
- Raise the heat back to medium-high and let the sauce cook down just a bit- about 5 minutes or so, stirring- it will be quite thin, you may a dd a little more sour cream if you prefer it a bit thicker.
- Test the flavor for seasonings- adding a little more salt, hot sauce, cumin,etc if needed to suit your tastes.
- Toss drained, hot pasta with a little olive oil or butter to taste- just enough to keep it from sticking together (optional step).
- Divide pasta among 4 large dinner plates and ladle out the sauce into the center of each.
- Place a dollop of sour cream in the very center of each portion and sprinkle some freshly chopped cilantro leaves over all.
- Serve immediately.
- NOTE:*You may use prechopped, bottled fresh garlic if desired.
