Midweek, I’m usually running low on inspiration.
I need something with zing, and bite, full of nutrition, to help me through to Friday.
It goes without saying that it needs to be quick too.
This green spaghetti fits the bill perfectly. It is also delicious, and seasonal (summer).

Serves 2
A quick, healthy meal that suits all dietary requirements
Ingredients
- 1/2 packet (250gm) of pasta of your choice. I used Sam Mills Pasta D'Oro corn fettucine
- 1 avocado Mine was from Willunga Farmers Market
- 500 gm (approx 8) baby zucchini Mine was from Tobolong Tomatoes at Willunga Market
- 1/2 red onion
- 1 clove garlic
- (Optional) 1/2 package of Udder Delights Chevre
- Lime juice
- Pinch chilli
- Olive oil
- Salt & pepper
Instructions
- 1. Finely dice the onion and clove of garlic.
- 2. Saute on low heat the onion & garlic with some olive oil and a pinch of chilli flakes.
- 3. While the onion, garlic & chilli sweats, prepare the zucchini. Top & tail, halve, then cut or scrape out the seeds. Grate the zucchini. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible in a tea towel.
- 4. Put a pan on water on the stove to boil. Once boiling, add a pinch of salt, and the pasta. Cook the pasta for according to the packet directions (I cook for a minute less so it is more al dente.)
- 5. While the pasta cooks, add the zucchini to the pan with the onion and garlic and saute.
- 6. Dice the avocado and add to the pan, along with the chevre if using to heat through.
- 7. Drain the pasta and toss in the pan with the greens.
- 8. Add plenty of lime juice, salt & pepper to taste.
- Enjoy!
