Zucchini and fresh parsley pair up as a refreshing duo in this summertime pasta. Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups (6 ounces) uncooked rotini (corkscrew-shaped pasta) |
olive oil-flavored cooking spray |
2 teaspoons olive oil |
1 1/2 pounds zucchini (about 3), cut into 1/2-inch pieces |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled feta cheese |
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley |
2 teaspoons lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Cook rotini according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid.
2. Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Add oil, and place over medium-high heat. Add zucchini; sauté 13 minutes or until tender. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt.
3. Combine hot pasta, reserved cooking liquid, zucchini, feta cheese, and remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Toss well.
