Ingredients

• 1 lb. Pappardelle’s Pasta Spinach Garlic Fettuccine
• 2 tbsp good quality olive oil
• ½ onion, diced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced

Add zucchini, Italian herb seasonings, tomatoes, and cook covered for 5-10 minutes. Add mushrooms and basil and cook uncovered an additional 2 minutes. Add the pasta and white balsamic vinegar to the sauce and lightly toss. Add salt and pepper to taste. Finish with olive oil if desired. Serve immediately.
