From the www.cookscountry.com website. "This simple pasta dish comes together quickly for a fast weeknight meal. Here's what we discovered: Test Kitchen Discoveries One pound of quartered white or cremini mushrooms can be substituted for the portobellos. After adding the mushrooms, peppers, and onion to the skillet, cover it-this creates a gentle steaming effect and produces nicely browned, tender vegetables. Liberally season the water in which the pasta is cooked; otherwise it will taste bland. The ruffled nooks and crannies of campanelle pasta (also called belliflowers) work great here, but fusilli or penne is an acceptable substitute.

Steps:
- Bring 4 quarts water to boil in large pot. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add mushrooms, peppers, onion, 3 tablespoons vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper to skillet and cook covered, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Uncover and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender and browned around edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- While vegetables are cooking, add 1 tablespoon salt and pasta to boiling water and cook until al dente. Reserve ½ cup cooking water, drain pasta, and return to pot. Add cooked vegetables, remaining oil, and remaining vinegar to pot with pasta and toss to combine, adding reserved pasta water as needed. Stir in tomatoes and basil and season with salt and pepper. Serve.
