Basil Parmesan

I’m a fan of simple summer pasta dishes. They are an easy way to use up the abundance of market produce I pile onto the counter and into the fridge, and in less than 20 minutes I can almost always have a meal on the table that will please all the people in my house. From greens, peas, and zucchini to corn, beans, and tomatoes I can’t think of any summer veg that couldn’t be grilled, sautéed, steamed, and/or roasted before being tossed into a pot of olive oil-slicked pasta.
