PASTA:

1/2 medium head of radicchio -- cut into shreds (1 cup)

12 ounces penne pasta

4 cups broccoli florets

1 medium zucchini; quartered lengthwise -- cut into half-inch

slices

1 red onion -- finely chopped

1/2 pound cherry tomatoes -- cut in half

VINAIGRETTE:

15 ounces canned garbanzo beans -- rinsed and drained

1 clove garlic

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary -- chopped (1-tsp dried)

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1/2 cup water

1/8 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

 

To prepare pasta, place radicchio in large bowl and set aside.

 

Cook pasta according to package directions. When almost but not quite cooked,

add broccoli. Thirty seconds later, add zucchini. Drain pasta and vegetables in

colander. Pour hot pasta mixture over radicchio to wilt it. Add onion and

tomatoes and toss.

 

While pasta is cooking, prepare vinaigrette. Puree garbanzo beans, garlic,

NOTES : Notice in the pasta and vegetables with garbanzo bean vinaigrette the

great shortcut of cooking the vegetables in the pot with the pasta. Not only

does this save you the effort of steaming several different vegetables and the

worry of getting the timing right, it also makes cleanup a breeze.
