Mushroom Zucchini Pasta

This delicious Zucchini Mushroom Pasta is a great 20-minute pasta dinner that requires just a few ingredients. Enjoy this dish with a side of salad to make it even more nutritious.

Ingredients:
8 oz. Tagliatelle Pasta
2 medium Zucchini, sliced
1 cup Baby Bella Mushrooms, sliced
½ Onion, sliced
2-3 Garlic Cloves
4 tbsp. Pesto
¼ cup Fresh Parsley, chopped
1 T Olive Oil
Red Pepper Flakes to taste
Salt and Cracked Black Pepper to taste
Parmesan Cheese (for garnish)

Instructions:
In a medium sized pot, bring lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Make sure you cook the pasta according to the package directions, or al dente. When the pasta is half-cooked, heat a skillet over medium heat, and add the olive oil. Start sautéing garlic, onions, mushrooms, and zucchini in the oil. Stir occasionally, while frying for three minutes. Next, sprinkle in red chili flakes, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Pesto and chopped parsley should be added in next. Then combine well. With a set of tongs, pull the cooked pasta into the sauce, stir everything together until well coated. Serve your mushroom zucchini pasta, with some freshly grated Parmesan cheese, for a nice touch.
