OH MY GOODNESS dinner tonight and the past two nights was DELICIOUS!!!!
My family took the Barilla Whole Grain Taste Challenge and were left full and eager to try NEW Barilla recipes.
The first two nights we tried Barilla Whole Grain pasta shells with our favorite pasta sauce and really enjoyed the fresh taste.
I couldn’t wait to try a NEW Bailla Pasta recipe so I visited http://www.trybarillawholegrain.comand clicked on who I was making a meal for, what type of Whole Grain meal I wanted to make, and the preparation time that I would like. A list of delicious pasta recipe selections came up. The hard part was choosing just one. There were so many that sounded so good. I ended up choosing Thin Spaghetti with Zucchini and Parmesan. Quick and simple mix of Whole Grain Thin Spaghetti with zucchini and Parmesan cheese.
Thin Spaghetti with Zucchini and Parmesan Cheese Recipe:
- 1 BOX Barilla Whole Grain Thin Spaghetti
- 4 LEAVES Fresh Basil, Cut Into Strips
- 1 CLOVE Garlic, Chopped
- 2 CUPS Cherry Tomatoes
- 4 Small Zucchini, Diced
- 1/2 CUP Parmesan Cheese, Freshly Grated
- 2 TABLESPOONS Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- TO TASTE Sea Salt
BRING a large pot of water to a boil.
SEASON zucchini with sea salt.
COOK Whole Grain Thin Spaghetti according to package directions.
Meanwhile, HEAT olive oil in medium skillet, add garlic and sauté for 2 minutes.
ADD zucchini to the skillet and sauté for 2 minutes.
ADD cherry tomatoes and sauté until skins are slightly blistered and the tomatoes are heated through, about 2 minutes.
DRAIN pasta, add to skillet and toss with basil and cheese.
It was completely easy to make, TASTED GREAT, healthy, perfect blend of veggies and flavor, and the best part for me was my kids ate it too. I liked trying a new recipe that offered a delicious fresh and healthy whole grain taste. Definitely would make a great dish to serve to dinner guests.
