Summer Zucchini Pasta image

I'm always experimenting when my garden is cranking out zucchini and summer squash. This simple and healthy summer zucchini pasta is one of my latest wins. It's meatless, but you can add shredded chicken or grilled salmon for a heartier dish. -Beth Berlin, Oak Creek, Wisconsin

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less red pepper flakes next time.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked this dish. I'm not usually a fan of zucchini, but the sauce and tomatoes really made it shine.

I made this last night and it was delicious! I used a spiralizer to make the zucchini noodles and they were perfect. The sauce was flavorful and the tomatoes added a nice freshness.
