Springtime Pastas

This simple pasta makes an excellent first course or light meal with a salad.

We love Bolognese, but when the weather warms, we look for pasta dishes featuring the season's first harvests: tender peas and fava beans, artichokes and asparagus. Here are 10 of our favorites.

The Recipes

Put away your baked pasta recipes and celebrate the season with lighter, brighter pastas. Most of these are super quick to make, though if you have a little time, fresh pasta, where it's called for, will make all the difference.
