Zucchini Pasta

Nov 13, 2007 - Okay, so the name is a little misleading, but I had this dish for dinner last night and I thought it was pretty tasty! The original recipe called for a little cream cheese, but #1 - I don't eat it and #2 - We have none in our house, so I just skipped that altogether. My husband said that it needed some sauce with it (I disagree), but he also said that just about anything would work - even some pasta sauce. - 7 Comments
