It’s Pastapalooza 2016, and I’m celebrating the All American Cookout by serving up a grilled vegetables with pasta recipe! It’s perfect for a backyard get-together, a neighborhood cookout or a family reunion in a nearby park.
(I created this recipe in partnership with Dreamfields Pasta. All opinions remain my own.)
I love Dreamfields Pasta (click to get a coupon while supplies last) since it has the taste and al dente texture of traditional pasta, but with 5 grams of fiber (20% of the daily recommended intake) and 7 grams of plant protein in every one cup cooked serving. It’s an easy way to eat a little better!
Dreamfields also contains inulin, a prebiotic fiber sourced from chicory root, which encourages healthy digestion. It’s also available in a variety of shapes: Elbows, Penne Rigate, Rigatoni, Angel Hair, Spaghetti, Linguine, and Lasagna.
Dreamfields Penne Rigate
Paired with some delicious grilled veggies for summertime, you simply can’t go wrong! (During the cooler seasons of the year, roasted vegetables from the oven will be just as appetizing.)
Yummy, right?!!! Serve the grilled vegetables with pasta, cooled or hot… your choice!
You’ll find this recipe and other delicious Dreamfields Pasta recipes here!

I love the taste that grilling adds to fresh veggies, and I love that grilling keeps that brutal Texas summer heat outside where it belongs. The idea of a grilled veggie dish with pasta sounds DELICIOUS! I’m making sure none of my garden produce goes to waste and this sounds like a delicious way to do so. Love the post, thanks for sharing! (Stopping by from the Dream, Create, Inspire Blog Party)
