Fresh Lemon & Sage Pasta

I don’t know about you, but when the weather starts heating up I would do almost anything to avoid having to actually cook! I want foods that are fresh and easy and can come together in less than 30 minutes.

Luckily this yummy Lemon and Sage Pasta is the perfect solution to my lazy summer cooking style. Not only is it absolutely delicious, it requires simple fresh ingredients. It is perfectly yummy all by itself, but it is also great served with grilled chicken, steak or shrimp for an effortless meal your whole family will love!

Here is what you need:

Step 1: Chop green onions, sage and broccoli into small bite size pieces and set aside. Bring water to a boil in large pot.

Step 2: Melt 4 tablespoons butter with olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add carrots and broccoli; cook until slightly soft, about 5-6 minutes. Add green onions and sage, stirring until lightly brown, approximately 7-8 minutes longer.

Step 3: Cook pasta according to directions.

Step 4:  Cut lemon in half; squeeze juice into melted butter, then add salt and pepper; set aside.

Step 5: Drain pasta and return to pot. Mix in vegetables, then toss well with lemon butter mixture. Mix in Parmesan cheese; serve immediately and enjoy.
