🧄 Mediterranean penne


Hi Reader,

Now that zucchini is season here in California, I've been experimenting with different ways to enjoy it.

One of my favorites is Mediterranean Penne.

It features tender summer squash, sweet cherry tomatoes, and buttery pine nuts, along with garlic and balsamic for seasoning.

And it's easy to make in 30 minutes!

Love and Veggies,

Amy

Bowl of rigatoni with white bean tomato sauce with Kalamata olives and parsley.

Hi Reader, This white bean tomato pasta is one of those dinners that comes through when the fridge is looking a little bare. The sauce is made with pantry staples like canned tomatoes, white beans, Kalamata olives, garlic, and dried oregano, then tossed with pasta for an easy meal that’s ready in about 20 minutes.
