INGREDIENTS

Drats, here I am up way too late again.

Couldn’t resist watching my tivo’d Bachelor “Where are they now” which was mostly old footage, don’t they know faithful Bachelor fans will catch stuff like that?!!

Still entertaining though, I was so mad, my DVR cut off the end where Brad was watching Deanna and Jesse on the show.

anyone tell me what happened, it cut off while he was eating his sandwich! Never thought I’d see him on the show again.

Ok, enough of that.

Here is a very healthful, full of great flavor, farmer’s market spaghetti I put together for dinner a couple nights ago.

I love all the fresh veggis and very light sauce.

It’s really good and quick to get on the dinner table.

If you think your kids might have an issue with the veggis in this dish, spoon their spaghetti into bowls and cut it up into little tiny pieces with kitchen scissors so they have to eat it with a spoon.

I do this with my boys pasta all the time and they don’t even realize they are eating veggis!
