Experiments in Cooking: Spaghetti with Zucchini, Walnuts & Raisins




Real Simple again has yet to let me down! We tried the spaghetti with zucchini, walnuts and raisins recipe. The recipe calls to lightly sautee the walnuts, and then gently toss the zucchini and raisins before adding to spaghetti and touching the whole plate off with a sprinkling of parmesan (we used feta instead, it was also delicious). Zucchini is my new favorite food, a fresh, healthy summer treat. It’s delicious fresh, a delicate taste! Sauteeing the walnuts brings out their nutty flavor, which contrasts nicely with the sweet punch of the raisins. This recipe doesn’t require a lot of time, nor a lot of heat to prepare, and is a healthier than creamy or heavy tomato-based pasta.
