Zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and basil give this vegan pasta dish a lot of fresh flavor. It's easy to make, filling, and great for a quick dinner during the week.
Ingredients: 200g pasta of your choice. 2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced. 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved. 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 2 tablespoons olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions: Follow the directions on the package to cook the pasta until it is al dente. Remove the water and set it aside. Warm up the olive oil in a big pan over medium-low heat. For about one minute, until the garlic smells good, add the minced garlic. Put the sliced zucchini in the pan and cook them for about 5 to 7 minutes, until they are soft. After you add the cherry tomatoes, cook for another two to three minutes, until they begin to soften. Add the cooked pasta and the basil leaves that have been torn. Add pepper and salt to taste. Stirring every now and then, cook for another two to three minutes, until everything is hot all the way through. Serve hot, and if you want, top with more fresh basil leaves.
