  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Halve grape tomatoes. Trim woody ends off asparagus and cut into 1” lengths on an angle. Trim zucchini ends, halve lengthwise, and cut into 1/2” half-moons. Drain artichokes. Keep croutons in shipping bag and break into coarse breadcrumbs.

  2. 2

    Sear the Vegetables

    Heat 2 tsp. olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add asparagus and zucchini pieces to hot pan and cook, stirring occasionally, 4-5 minutes, or until slightly charred and just tender. Add grape tomatoes and artichokes and cook 2 more minutes. Transfer to a plate or bowl and wipe pan clean.

  3. 3

    Cook the Pasta

    Add cavatappi to boiling water and cook 11-12 minutes, or until al dente. Drain in colander, return to pot, and toss with 2 tsp. olive oil. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Make the Sauce

    Return large pan to medium heat. Add evaporated milk to hot pan and bring to a simmer. Cook 4-5 minutes, stirring often, or until slightly thickened. Stir in Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs (reserve a pinch for garnish). Cook 2-3 more minutes, or until sauce is thick enough to coat back of a spoon. Remove pan from burner and swirl in butter. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper. Both breadcrumbs and Parmesan will help thicken sauce.

  5. 5

    Toss the Pasta

    Add cooked cavatappi and vegetables to pan with sauce. Toss to coat, taste, and season with 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.

  6. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Place a serving of pasta in a dish and top with reserved breadcrumbs. Garnish with goat cheese crumbles.
