Grilled Summer Squash and Tomatoes With Angel Hair Pasta image

This is so simple and so good. I make this on an indoor grill, but it can be made on an outside grill or in a stovetop grill pan. This is adapted from a recipe in Everyday Food Magazine (#3), and the original recipe is pasta and cheese-less and also includes grilled chicken. Sometimes I also make it that way.

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 ounces uncooked angel hair pasta
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon dried basil
2 small yellow squash or 2 small zucchini, halved lengthwise
3 medium tomatoes, halved
salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Cook pasta according to package, drain.
  • In a medium bowl, combine squash, tomatoes, oil, garlic, salt, basil, and pepper.
  • Set aside.
  • Heat up grill (medium-high heat if you have temperature control, mine has just the one temperature setting).
  • Grill the vegetables 3-5 minutes per side until they are slightly softened and browned (it takes more like 20 minutes total in my grill, so you may really need to experiment with cooking times).
  • Remove from grill and allow to cool enough for you to handle.
  • Cut the veggies into bite-sized pieces.
  • Toss pasta and vegetables together in a large serving bowl.
  • Top with cheese.
