Make-It-Up Spaghetti



I had some veggies that needed to be used up and warm spaghetti just sounded good this week with the cooler temps. The whole family gobbled this one up :)

Make-It-Up Spaghetti


Ingredients:
-1 large zucchini, sliced and quartered
-6-8 tomatoes, roughly chopped
-olive oil
-garlic, minced
-kale
-garbanzo beans*
-small cut pasta
-shredded parmesan
-toasted sunflower seeds

1. Boil noodles to al dente. Rinse and set aside.
2. In a large pan, simmer olive oil and garlic.
3. Add tomatoes and zucchini, let simmer for 15 minutes.
4. Stir in kale and garbanzo beans and simmer for another 3-5 minutes.
5. Mix in pasta.
6. Serve topped with sesame seeds and parmesan.

*This was my source of protein for our meal, but it would also be great with grilled chicken or shrimp.
