This is a quick and delicious vegetarian Fettuccine pasta recipe is made with peppers. Topped with Bertolli Pasta sauce for an easy vegetarian pasta dinner
Fettuccine pasta is my favorite type of “long” pasta. When I was younger, I used to call it long pasta because I couldn’t say fettuccine. It is so funny because my friend’s daughter does the same thing. She calls it “long tail” pasta and won’t eat it because she thinks that the “long tails” was stolen from a horse.
I absolutely love that about her, so, I try not to make it in her presence.
Her dad and I belong to a brunch group and we are huge fans of pasta in general. Once a month, we meet for a dinner and try pasta recipes. It is a wonderful taste tour for us, but, it is more about a bonding experience.
We will have pasta potluck dinners and all of us bring a pasta recipe. Last month, I was delighted to taste a vegan fettuccine bolognese recipe. It is the first time I had a chance to taste bolognese sauce and now, I have my own recipe for vegan bolognese sauce.
I wanted to keep this recipe as simple as possible. That is why I added fresh peppers and nothing else. Bertolli’s Riserva sauce does all the heavy lifting while you relax. It adds delicious Tuscan flavors to the pasta like oregano and other spices, tang and even some cheese.

Fettuccine Pasta Recipe With Peppers
1) In a saucepan, add about 7 cups of water and bring it to a boil. I didn’t add any salt or oil
2) Add 1/4 pound of dry fettuccine pasta to the boiling water
3) While the pasta is being cooked, cut the 1/2 of the green peppers, red peppers and yellow peppers. Cut them into long strips
4) In a wok, add 1 tsp of extra virgin olive oil. Heat on medium heat. Cut 3 cloves of garlic into halves and add to the oil
5) Add the cut peppers and them saute for about five minutes or until they start to brown from the edges
6) Drain the fettuccine pasta
7) Add it to the peppers
8) Add 1/2 cup of Bertolli Riserva Marinara to the wok
9) Mix well and serve immediately

This looks fantastic! My parents just brought us back some pasta from Italy so I know what I’ll be doing with that this weekend. Looks wonderful and is making me hungry.
Thank you, Meagan. OOOOH! Authentic pasta from Italy with Bertolli pasta sauce!I can only imagine how great it will taste. Send some over? 🙂
Very timely post for me. Literally yesterday at the supermarket, a coupon for this sauce printed out at the register and I looked and thought “hmmmm, haven’t heard of that one yet, I wonder how it is”. After seeing your recipe, I’m thinking I’m going to head back and use that coupon to purchase this and give it a try! Thanks!
Thank you, Christine. I really think you are going to like it. It is a light sauce with delicious flavors. I am addicted to it now. Lately, I am using it dip snacks in the sauce and eat it that way. YUM!
Looks like a fabulous quick and easy dinner!
