- Wine Suggestion: This summery pasta dish should pair well with Sauvignon Blanc. California, the Loire Valley in France and the Marlborough region in New Zealand's South Island are areas which produce fantastic Sauvignon Blanc. Try Villa Maria Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.
- Comments: You can vary this recipe by using any number of seasonal vegetables, including cauliflower, green beans, peas, zucchini or possibly yellow squash to even cucumber. In place of the Parmesan cheese, stir in 8 ounces of chevre, or possibly soft goat cheese, before adding basil and seasoning to taste. Use any one of the spiral- or possibly shell-shaped pastas in place of the angel hair.
