While grocery shopping today, I came up with this great recipe for a pasta dish. Since it would end up being a low-fat meal I decided to try it out and share it with all of you.
Here is everything you’ll need to make this delicious dish!
The ingredients: Fresh mushrooms, fresh zucchini, bowtie pasta, chili powder, extra virgin olive oil, roasted garlic & herb seasoning, red wine vinegar, and feta.
First, you start off by boiling the pasta (I used half a box in this case). Be sure to add a splash of olive oil! Next, you can start sautéing the mushrooms and zucchini while the pasta cooks (I used one whole zucchini and half of a carton of mushrooms). In a small pan, add your mushrooms and zucchini (I chose to slice mine- you can slice, dice, chop, whatever you want with yours), along with 2 Tbsp. of olive oil, and your chili powder and roasted garlic & herb seasoning. (I don’t measure out my seasonings. Ever. I always add to taste) You can also add salt & pepper if you’d like. Allow your veggies to sauté for approximately 10 minutes on medium heat. You want just enough time and heat to wilt them, not scorch them. After your pasta is finished, be sure to drain to water. We’re making a delicious dish here not a soup! Put the pasta in a separate bowl. Add another Tbsp or so of olive oil to the pasta, as well as your red wine vinegar. (This is another ingredient that I do not measure- it’s always to taste) Be sure to toss the pasta so that the oil and vinegar coats it. Next, add your veggies. Feel free to toss in a pinch or two more of the chili powder and roasted garlic & herb seasoning as well as salt & pepper. To finish, sprinkle in a bit of feta! This can be served either immediately or chilled if you prefer.
Enjoy! And please tell me what you think about Yummy Yummy Pasta!
