Yummy recipe to share

Well, I have yet to sit down and plan out a weeks worth of meals...got hit pretty bad while my folks were here with a not so fun viral crud, kind of bounced on to all of us.  I still feel like I'm recovering and it's been well over a week now.  However, I did cook dinner the other night.  Katie had a few friends over for dinner and this is what she picked for dinner...the three of us loved it, I'm not sure how the friends liked it...but it is worth sharing.  :)

Italian Chicken Pasta Toss6 oz uncooked bow tie pasta
2 plum tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 small onion, diced
1 medium zucchini, sliced
1 small yellow or red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1/2 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1 inch strips
2 tsp olive oil
2 large cloves garlic, pressed
1/2 cup frozen peas
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1 tsp salt
1 oz (about 1/4 cup) grated fresh Parmesan cheese

Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and keep warm.

Heat oil over medium - high heat in large skillet. Press garlic into skillet. Add chicken. Stir-fry for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add all veggies except tomatoes. Stir in Italian Seasoning and salt. Stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and heat for another 2 minutes, stirring gently. Remove from heat.
