Posted by bettyboop50 at recipegoldmine.com May 9, 2001

Serves 4

1 pound rotini or shell pasta
1/3 cup oil
1 large minced garlic clove
8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 pound fresh zucchini, scrubbed and coarsely grated
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Cook pasta in boiling salted water and drain, set aside.

Heat oil in pasta pot over moderate heat and add garlic, cook 1/2 minute. Return pasta to pot and toss to coat with oil/garlic. Add cheeses and toss again. Add remaining ingredients and continue to toss over moderate heat until cheese and moisture from zucchini coat pasta with a light sauce.

Serve immediately with additional cheese if desired.
