It is just me and my husband . I am trying to get some more and some different veggies in ou diet. I was looking at several different recipes, and I am taking a little bit of this and a little bit of that from several recipes. I've also added some of my own touches. It is for dinner tonight. We will see. Ingredients:
1 medium zucchini, sliced |
1/2 onion, finely chopped |
1 -2 minced garlic clove (according to your taste) |

1 (9 ounce) package frozen artichoke hearts (defrosted) |
3 tablespoons sherry wine (not cooking sherry) |
1/2 cup whole wheat penne (or other whole grain pasta) |
4 -5 tablespoons grated fresh parmesan cheese (not the stuff in the green can) |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Heat the olive oil in a saute pan and lightly saute the onion and zucchini. Cook till the zucchini is tender. 2. Add the garlic and saute for another minute. 3. Add the defrosted artichoke hearts and the wine. 4. Simmer for a few more minutes. 5. Meanwhile, cook the penne according to the package directions. 6. Drain and add the penne or pasta to the veggies. 7. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. 8. Makes 2 servings. |
