I made this one with zucchini from my branch president's garden and squash from Dave's. I am glad people share their produce with me. You don't see any green from the zucchini in this one because I had had the zucchini for awhile so I peeled it. This was yummy, but a little time consuming, I cut all the veggies by hand.
I cut my veggies bigger than was suggested, so I used linguini noodles so they would all be about the same size.
This recipe made a ton, I think I got six really big servings out of it.
I got this recipe from: http://www.melskitchencafe.com/zucchini-yellow-squash-spaghetti/
INGREDIENTS
- 8 ounces spaghetti noodles
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 zucchini, julienned, about 7 cups (see note above)
- 2 yellow squash, julienned, about 3 1/2 cups (see note above)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from about 1 large lemon)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced fresh basil
- 1 tablespoon minced lemon zest
DIRECTIONS
- In a large pot of salted, boiling water, cook the spaghetti according to package directions. Drain (but do not rinse!).
- While the spaghetti is boiling, saute the garlic in the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the julienned zucchini and squash. Season with salt and pepper to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon of each to start). Cook the zucchini and squash until slightly wilted, 1 minute, then add the lemon juice. Cook for 1-2 minutes more, until the squash and zucchini are just for tender.
- Off the heat, stir in the cooked spaghetti, Parmesan cheese, basil and lemon zest. Top with additional Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve immediately.
