Quick and Easy Zucchini Linguine

(from largomason’s recipe box)

Ingredients

  • 12 oz linguine
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 1/2 lbs zucchini, shredded (This is several zucchinis. I probably used 6. I also used some green and some yellow.)
  • 3/4 cup plain yogurt
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper
  • Diced roma tomatoes and diced avocados (however much you'd like)
  • 1 Lemon, juiced

Directions

  1. Cook linguine until firm but tender.

  2. Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. When the oil starts smoking add in the garlic and cook until lightly browned, for about 30 seconds.

  3. Add in 1/4 of the zucchini to the garlic and cook on high until well coated with oil.

  4. Add in the remaining zucchini and cook until tender, about 3-5 minutes. Salt and pepper the zucchini liberally.

  5. Turn heat to low and add in the yogurt, cheese and pasta. Toss to mix. Transfer to a large serving bowl.

  6. Squeeze in lemon juice to taste and top with tomatoes and avocados. Plenty of salt and pepper to taste.
