We are always experimenting with different pastas that do not have a tomato base, as Mom hates cooked tomatoes. This pasta came together on a rainy night with what we had in the crisper. The little ones have been enthusiastic about eating Zucchini, so perhaps we over bought, hoping to strike while the new taste affection was hot. This was a way to use up the last lonely one! By using fresh pasta, the only thing that you are really waiting on is the zucchini to soften and brown, whereby making this a twenty minute supper. The combo of lemon, Parmesan, and garlic is classic and adding a hint of vinegar adds a layer of flavor to this quick cooking sauce. Enjoy! 

*This pasta is great also with no pasta at all! Use a spiralizer or a mandoline to cut the Zucchini into noodles or ribbons. Use 3 large Zucchini if omitting the pasta. Follow recipe for sauce just omitting the Zucchini from the sauce. Blanch them in the boiling water until al dente and finish the same way. 


Zucchini, Spinach, Garlic and Lemon Linguini
Serves 2-4
1 package fresh linguini
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1 large zucchini, diced

I realized that it has been a while since the last time I came up with a new recipe. Because of that, I am looking forward to try the recipe you presented above. Zucchini, Spinach, Garlic and Lemon Linguini looks pretty complicated to prepare but that doesn't matter as long as I will get the taste you've sent for this recipe. You mentioned that it's being served with extra cheese; adding a lot of cheese might make the recipe even more enticing, and I am hoping that I could taste it anytime soon!
