Spinach Fettuccine with Sauteed Vegetables, Artichoke Hearts, and Shredded Mozzarella

• 12 ounces spinach fettuccine
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 cup sliced red onion
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 cups asparagus cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 medium carrot, cut diagonally into 14-inch-thick slices
• 1 cup sliced button or cremini mushrooms
• 1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and cut in half
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes
• 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
2. Drain, let cool to room temperature, transfer to a large zip-top plastic bag and seal.
3. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
4. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
5. Add the asparagus, carrot, mushrooms, and artichoke hearts and cook, stirring a few times, until the vegetables are crisp-tender and the mushrooms release their juices, about 5 minutes.
6. Add the salt and pepper and stir to coat.
7. Let the pasta and vegetables cool to room temperature.
8. Transfer them separately to large zip-top plastic bags or containers and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze up to 3 months.
9. There's no need to thaw before continuing.
10. Transfer the vegetables to a large saucepan and stir in the tomatoes.
11. Set the pan over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer (or reheat both together in the microwave for about 3 minutes on HIGH).
12. Add the fettuccine and simmer for 2 minutes to heat through (or microwave for an additional 2 minutes).
13. Serve topped with the mozzarella.
