ZUCCHINI AND MUSHROOM SKILLET

Steps:

• Cut zucchini in half and then into 1 inch pieces.
• Heat enough olive oil to saute in a heavy skillet over medium high heat.
• Add zucchini, mushrooms, onion and garlic.
• Stir-fry until the zucchini and mushrooms are just tender and the onion is tender/crisp (about 8 minutes).
• Stir in oregano and salt and pepper to taste.

ZUCCHINI, MUSHROOM AND PASTA SKILLET

Steps:

• Saute onions, mushrooms and garlic until onions are clear. Add zucchini and cook until it is crisp-tender. Drain excess water from the skillet.
• Add mozzarella cheese and allow to melt.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions.
• Drain pasta and add 1 jar spaghetti sauce to pasta.
• Serve pasta topped with veggie mix.
• I often make this recipe as three separate pieces -- pasta, veggies and cheese, and let each of us assemble our own. In addition, I also will marinade a chicken breast in Italian salad dressing and then cook it up in strips or cubes and add to this delicious goodness.
