Fresh Zucchini and Roma Tomato Pasta
*modified recipe from starved-writer.com


1/2 box whole wheat spaghetti pasta
1 cup White Bean Alfredo Sauce (listed on this blog)
1/3 small yellow onion
1 zucchini, diced
2 roma tomatoes, diced
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon dried parsley
1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil

In a medium size pot, start some water over high heat.
While that is getting hot, dice up onions, zucchini, tomato.
Once the water is boiling, cook the pasta as directed on the package.
When the pasta is almost finished cooking, heat olive oil in frying pan over medium high heat. Add onions and zucchini and sautee to desired tenderness (I cooked mine for about 5 minutes and added about 2 Tablespoons of water after 3 minutes).  Add diced tomatoes, lemon juice and parsley.  Cook for one minute just to heat through.
Drain pasta and return to pan. Add white bean "alfredo" sauce to pasta. Mix in zucchini and tomato mix and serve.
Serves 2

 This is the veggies ready to be combined with the pasta.


The final outcome.  It taste wonderful!
