Veggie Pasta

Cajun French:   l’ail (l’a-ee)  –  garlic

 

Having purchased a bunch of young kale at the farmers market, we were trying to decide how to use it in a different way.  Pasta sounded good since we had not made anything with pasta in a while.  We also had farmers market Creole red onion, peppers and garlic; so veggie pasta it would be.  There were two stuffed crabs left that would add more flavor.  A side salad of tomato, avocado, and shallots would round out the meal.

Mais C’est Bon!

Enjoy!!
