- Prepare outdoor grill for direct grilling over medium-high heat. In large skillet, cook breadcrumbs, 1 tablespoon oil, crushed red pepper, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper over medium-low heat 3 minutes or until golden brown, stirring frequently; remove from heat. Cool slightly; stir in cheese and lemon zest.
- Heat large covered saucepot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add pasta and cook as label directs, adding green beans during last 3 minutes of cooking; drain and return to saucepot. Add spinach, tomatoes, peas, and 2 tablespoons oil; toss and cover to keep warm.
