This is an adaptation of "Spicy Corn Quesadillas" from Moosewood
Restaurant Cooks at Home. I had Chili Pepper Pasta, which local
groceries have just started carrying (along with several other  flavors
of dried pasta), and no idea what I was going to do with it  until this
caught my eye:  Chop veggies while boiling water for pasta. Put pasta
in to cook, and  saute onion and garlic about 5 minutes, till
softening. Add carrot  and saute 2 minutes more. (I also added a
chopped zucchini at this  point 'cause it needed to be used up, and it
was just fine.) Add  <chile/cayenne> corn, cumin, coriander, <cilantro>
and cook covered  for 3-4 minutes, stirring often. Add salt and pepper
to taste and  remove from heat. At this point the original recipe calls
for  stirring the cheese into the veggies, letting it partially melt,
and  putting it on tortillas for quesadillas. I put my veggies on top
of  the pasta, and sprinkled some cheese on top. This took a total of
20-30 minutes to make, and turned out to be a great combo! Serves 3
(12 oz pasta) to 4 (16 oz) adults.  Posted to fatfree digest V96 #240
