Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallion whites and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until soft, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle in the chili powder and cook, stirring, until the scallions are coated and the oil is brick red, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the chicken, 1/2 cup of the salsa and 1/2 cup of the cheese. Set aside.
- Halve the zucchini lengthwise and arrange cut-side down on a work surface. Use a Y-shaped vegetable peeler to shave off ribbons the entire length of each zucchini and as wide as possible (the first few may be too skinny). Make 36 zucchini ribbons total.
- Lay out 3 ribbons, slightly overlapping to make a rectangle (think of this as your "tortilla"). Pile about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture down along one of the short ends of the zucchini tortilla and then roll up to enclose the filling. Put in a 2- to 3-quart baking dish. Roll up the remaining zucchini ribbons and filling and arrange in the dish. Top the rolls with the remaining 1 cup salsa. Add several dashes of the hot sauce and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
- Bake until the cheese is melted and the filling is hot, about 25 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes. Thin the sour cream out with a little water and drizzle over the enchiladas. Sprinkle with the reserved scallion greens and serve with more hot sauce if you'd like.

CHEESY ZUCCHINI AND CHICKEN PASTA
This recipe is very versatile, add more or less garlic, add some pepper, stewed tomatoes, whatever floats your boat. This is a very quick meal for us because I always have already cooked pasta and chicken in the freezer, so all I have to do is pull it out and voila! You could also use canned chicken. This is not a real spicy meal, it's a good base recipe and one I know my kids will enjoy as is when I don't feel like listening to them complain and we are all just hungry and tired :)This makes a lot, so we usually have some left over to serve as a side dish on another night.

Steps:
- I usually have the chicken already cooked, but if you don't, cook three breasts of chicken. Put water on for the pasta (again, if you don't already have this in the freezer).
- While those two things are cooking, put the oil in a large skillet, shred the carrots and zucchini. Toss them along with the garlic into the pan and saute.
- By the time the carrots and zucchini are done, your pasta and chicken should be done as well.
- Toss it all together in the skillet along with the sour cream, mozzarella, parmesan, and romano cheeses. Let it sit for a few minutes to let the cheese melt and serve!

Steps:
- For the sauce, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat.
- Add the onion, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Cook, stirring, 1 minute. Cover, reduce heat to very low and cook until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. (Check a few times during cooking; if vegetables begin to brown, add 2 teaspoons water and stir.)
- Add the tomatoes with juice, basil and another 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Bring to a simmer, cover and simmer gently 5 minutes.
- Then simmer very gently, partially covered, until thickened, about 20 minutes.
- Season with 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
- Meanwhile, using a mandoline or vegetable peeler, slice the zucchini lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick long pappardelle-like strips, turning the zucchini and slicing on 4 sides only until you see the center seeds. Discard the centers.
- Remove the tomato sauce to a bowl with a rubber spatula; no need to clean the skillet.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in the skillet over medium heat.
- Add the zucchini and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Cover and cook until wilted, tossing often with tongs for even cooking, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Return the tomato sauce to the pan, add 1 tablespoon of the parsley, and season with 1/8 teaspoon pepper; cover and set aside.
- Cut chicken breasts in half to make 6-8 large, thin cutlets.
- On a plate, combine the bread crumbs, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan and the remaining chopped parsley.
- Place the egg white on a second plate.
- Dip the chicken into the egg whites, and then into the bread crumb mixture to coat completely; set aside on a large plate or platter.
- Heat 2 teaspoons oil in each of two nonstick 10-inch skillets over medium-high heat.
- Add half of the chicken to each skillet and cook until lightly browned on one side, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip, and cook until chicken is firm, and lightly browned on the other side, 1 to 3 more minutes.
- To serve, re-warm the zucchini in the tomato sauce over medium heat.
- Use tongs to make a "twist" of zucchini pappardelle on each of 4 plates.
- Lean chicken cutlets against the side of zucchini.
- Scoop 1 tablespoon ricotta onto each plate, and spoon remaining tomato sauce on top of the chicken.
- To garnish each plate, drizzle chicken with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon Parmesan.
