Accidental Pasta!!

I made the best veggie pasta tonight completely by accident. The hubs and I had kabobs last night with sausage, peppers, onions, and zucchini. As usual I had way more veggies left over than meat. So, tonight, after a day of heavy, greasy fried chicken for lunch, I wanted something light. I searched through my fridge and found a partial bottle of pasta sauce leftover from lasagna last week. With pasta sauce and veggies, I knew I wanted some kind of pasta. I was all ready to sauté my veggies in a bit of olive oil when I noticed a can of garbanzo beans in the pantry as I got out my pasta. So, I thought to myself, "how about replacing the beef or chicken I normally use in pasta with those beans?" And, oh my goodness, it turned out awesome!!!  The garbanzos were VERY tasty in the pasta!  Needless to say, this accidental recipe is a keeper. Here is my method, if you're interested:

1/2 yellow bell pepper chopped

1/2 green bell pepper chopped

1 zucchini chopped

1/2 onion chopped

1 can garbanzo beans drained

1 jar spaghetti pasta sauce

1 cup pasta, I used the cork screw kind

2 tbs olive oil 

Italian seasoning

Salt

Pepper

Sauté the first five ingredients in the olive oil. Add the salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning for taste. Boil pasta until soft. Add pasta sauce and pasta to veggies and beans in sauté skillet. Let sauce warm. Serve with fresh grated Parmesan on top!  Yummy!
