I sauté them by layers. I let the olive oil heat up a bit then add the onion and garlic. Once you can really smell it I add the peppers and cook them down before adding the mushroom. When it has cooked down a little, I add the tomato and cherries last. (You don't have to add the surinam cherries, I had some growing and wanted to use them up.)
You can use ANY vegetables you have on hand! I will be making this again as soon as my zucchini is ready.
Cook it all together for a bit. Usually 5 or 10 minutes depending on what vegetables you have. It will smell sooooo good!!! Once the vegetables are ready, add your creamy Bertolli Alfredo sauce.
I usually add about half of the jar because I like mine chunky but if you use the entire thing it goes farther with the pasta. Especially helpful if you have a large family that loves Italian food!

This sounds really good. My 8 year old son is working on starting our garden and has already grown tomatoes and green beans. We love being outside

Although I do not have a garden I do so appreciate veggies–all kinds of veggies and pasta is something I male all the time–it is so quick and easy and filling. I do love Bertolli sauces–not so much Alfredo (I just don’t like any Alfredo sauces) but I love their tomato varieties. No reason not to use a red sauce instead of the white one in this recipe that I can see!

exactly! We have to do the white because my husband can’t do the red although fresh tomatoes are fine.
I love everything about this recipe! From your use of your own fresh herbs to your choice of sauces. Yummy!

I can’t get over how you’re harvesting edibles already and we’re just beginning planting up here. lol So jealous! But this looks delicious and if I’m lucky I could replicate it in August. 😉

You can use whatever is on sale in the produce section. When August comes around I will be sweating to death wishing I was where you are 😉
This looks really really good. Yummy!! I have never heard of surinam cherries before they look interesting indeed. I am going to have to make this for sure. Thanks for sharing.
That sounds awesome. My husband and I would LOVE that for dinner.
This is so easy and sounds delicious! I am jealous you can go out back and pick your own fresh foods to feed your family. A vegetable garden is definitely on my “must-have” list for our next home!

I love, love, love this. Back in MD we used to grow everything and wish we could do the same here in Texas. This sounds like a great recipe. Very delicious looking.
What an awesome dish. I can’t wait to try it.

OMG I need to make this today! It looks amazing!!!
this sure packs a wallop! so easy and so pretty, and delish! I envy your gardens are so flush already, ppl are starting to put in their seeds. This is the first time I’ve seen or heard of surinam cherries – so cool!
This recipe looks beautiful and sounds so delicious! Your garden sounds wonderful; I remember when I was able to have one…then the squirrels took over. I really miss homegrown tomatoes! This TUSCAN PASTA PRIMAVERA will be, what’s for dinner real soon. Thanks for the recipe!
How wonderful that you go outside and pick your dinner. 🙂 I wish we had the space. It looks and sounds deliciou. Very colorful. Thanks for sharing.

That recipe looks delicious! I will have to try it out!
Just by looking at the picture m mouth is watering. Really enjoy the easy to go recipes, since I dont always have the time to spend hours in the kitchen. This one is perfect, thanks for the great recipe. And btw, you have a beautiful garden!!!
Thank you!
This sounds delicious! I may have to try this, I think even my picky DH would eat it.
I have never tried Bertolli sauces before and would love to. This recipe looks so wonderful and I know my family would love it.
This looks really really good and so easy to make. Even my children would eat this.
I can’t wait to start my garden!
this looks really good and that is my fav sauce of all time.
Oh my gosh==yummmmmm– this is one our family’s favorite sauces, and shamefully we are a big pasta eating family– thanks for sharing a great recipe
THis both sounds and looks delicious. I love using fresh ingredients when I cook. Bertoli makes good products.
I have never seen Surinam cherries, I had to look them up. It’s great you’ve been able to reap such a harvest. I’ve had difficulty adjusting to gardening in Florida.
I had to learn that you can’t grow everything here. You have to grow what grows. You have to water a lot and to feed the soil.
This looks so healthy!
ALl These fresh ingredients look delicious , but I am not familiar with the Surinam cherries
I just love Bertolli Alfredo sauce so do my boys. We will be trying this recipe very soon.
This looks so good. I love cold dishes like that in the summer. I wish I had that much luck with my garden. It is still early yet but the plants just don’t look strong and healthy like yours do.
Bertolli is my favorite brand when it comes to jarred pasta sauces. I love how quick and easy this recipe is plus it’s a great way to get more veggies into my family.
This will bring my crew a-runnin.
I also love how colorful this pasta dish looks – with the reds and greens.
This is a great way for children to eat more vegetables. I let them help make it. Thanks for the idea.
I love to,use fresh vegetables in a pasta dish like this one.
I am going to try this healthy pasta recipe soon.
This kept looking so good I went to the store and got the Bertolli sauce. The family loved it. It is such a great warm weather dish.
Bertolli is one of my favorite brands of pasta sauce!
It makes such a big difference to both the taste and the healthfulness of the pasta when you cad add fresh ingredients to the recipe.
You really have a knack for putting together a great dish that isn’t overwhelmingly complicated or expensive – super yum!
This has inspired me to make more cold salads and dishes for the summer. The possibilities are endless. Thank you.
that is my fav pasta sauce i use half red and half white.
YUMMY Yummy this sounds delicious, I would love to go out and pick fresh veggies for my sauces, but your alfredo sauce looks wonderful, I have never heard of surinam cherries, but they are interesting to look at will have to look them up, thank you for sharing another wonderful Bertolli recipe,
love to dip my bread sticks in this too` recipe looks good.
i love this sauce on my veggies
How wonderful this appears, you can also add some Bertolli spaghetti sauce to the alfredo sauce and it makes a pink sauce that my grandson loves, and it lessens the tomato taste for those with sensitive stomach, I can eat Bertolli anyway and all styles.
great for breadstick dipping too
Lovely dish. I never heard of surinam cherries before.
This pasta looks so yummy! I love veggies and cream sauce. Thanks for sharing!
Bertolli makes the best white sauce in a jar, and your healthy fresh Tuscan Pasta primavera looks so delicious and I want to make this recipe!
I’ll put in some fresh dill from my garden.
We are always looking for different ways to prepate dinners on our Italian nights!
Num…this looks really good, I will be making this one. Bertoli is a good pasta sauce! Thank you!
