Add red pepper flakes and saute lightly in oil (See note)
Add onions, toss and cook about 3 minutes till translucent.
Add Garlic and Zucchini, toss and cook 5 minutes
Cook Angle Hair Pasta per package Directions
Add Asparagus, toss and cook 5 more minutes - lower heat to medium, medium low
Add Tomatoes and season with salt and pepper to taste, toss and cook 3 minutes
Drain pasta (DO NOT RINSE) and put in pan with vegetables. Reduce heat to low.
Toss pasta with vegetables and serve in large pasta bowl.
Finish with shredded Parmesan cheese, toss and serve.
(NOTE: To reduce how spicy dish is, add red pepper flakes later with the tomatoes)

I made this recipe up this week with what I had around the house. It turned out to be wonderful. Plenty of fresh vegetables in a light olive oil sauce. By adding the red pepper flakes in per the recipe, there is a noticable spice to the dish... but if you want it milder, add them later with the tomatoes or leave out entirely.
