Light & Hearty – The Perfect Pasta

Toujis Perfect Pasta w/ Zucchini, Tomato, Avocado & FetaThis is a super quick and ultra savory pasta, topped with a mix of sautéed and fresh veggies.

Serves 1-2

Ingredients

brown rice pasta
1 T. olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 yellow onion
1 small zucchini, chopped
3-4 dried tomatoes, chopped
cherry tomatoes, halved
fresh avocado slices
goat/sheep’s feta
salt & pepper

Directions

Put approx. 6 cups of water in large saucepan and heat on high until water begins to boil, then add your desired amount of pasta. I make around 1/2 – 1 cup (per person) depending how large I want the meal to be. Cook pasta for 8-10 minutes until it is just tender.

Coat a saucepan with olive oil and place on medium heat. Add yellow onion and sauté 3-4 minutes until beginning to look translucent. Add chopped garlic and zucchini and sauté for 3-4 minutes. Then add dried tomatoes and continue to cook for 3 minutes, until the vegetables are fragrant and appear and tender. Remove from heat.

Once your pasta is cooked, drain and combine immediately with sautéd vegetable mix. Drizzle with a bit more olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Top with cherry tomatoes, avocado and crumbled sheep/goat feta and serve immediately. Enjoy!
