Italian Zucchini

[cutlass6521 127]

The one food I miss since being banded is spaghetti and meatballs. Tried this carb friendly version, 5 strands of spaghetti noodles with zucchini and long squash.

3 cups zucchini and long squash slivered ( I used a veggie peeler)

1/2 c diced onion

2 cloves garlic chopped

1 cup sliced mushrooms

1/4 c white wine (or water)

1 c diced tomatoes (or cherry tomatoes)

1/4 c parmesan cheese

1 tsp olive oil

pinch of salt

pepper to taste

Add onions, garlic, salt, pepper, and oil to a skillet. Saute until onions are soft. Add mushrooms and brown. Deglaze pan with white wine, add zucchini and cook to soften. Add tomatoes to warm. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and serve. Makes 3 servings at approx. 114 calories/serving.

I added 5 strands of cooked spaghetti, 1/4 cup of marina sauce and 2 meatballs to my dish to give it the Italian Pasta night feel.
