Here are 7 kinds of vegetables that pair well with pasta.

Asparagus: Thinly sliced or chopped asparagus spears can be swiftly sautéed or roasted before being incorporated into pasta, offering a crisp, fresh texture.

Mushrooms: Sliced mushrooms add a hearty, earthy flavor to pasta. They pair well with creamy sauces or in a garlic and olive oil-based pasta.

Bell Peppers: Whether red, yellow, or green, sliced bell peppers add sweetness and crunch to pasta dishes.

Zucchini: Sliced or spiralized zucchini can be sautéed briefly and added to pasta for a fresh and light addition, perfect for summer dishes.

Broccoli: When chopped into small florets and lightly steamed or roasted, broccoli adds a satisfying crunch and a burst of green to pasta dishes

Spinach: Adds a vibrant color and a mild flavor to pasta dishes. It wilts quickly in the heat of pasta and complements creamy sauces or olive oil-based pastas.
