Sometimes when your cabinets are nearly empty, and you're forced to cook with whatever happens to be lying around, you end up with the best new recipes! I concocted this one this morning out of some pasta, walnuts, beans and zucchini. Here's what I did:
Cut up two small zucchini into thin slices, and sautee in some olive oil and garlic. While that's cooking, put water on to boil for the pasta.
Combine:
1/2 c. walnuts
1/2 c. small white beans
1/4 c. olive oil
1/4 c. water
2 tsp. chopped garlic
some parsley
some basil
Mix in a food processor until it turns into a paste. When the zucchini and pasta are done cooking, toss with some of the sauce and eat it up! This made a considerable amount of sauce so I put about two thirds of it in the fridge to use later... but it was SO delicious I'll probably be tapping into the supply for dinner tonight as well :)

I keep telling my mom about all these recipes and she keeps doing that "MMMMMM" thing and her eyebrows go up mischievously.
I do not know why I am telling you this. But this looks very yummy.

This does look good and I don't like walnuts!
that looks relaly good, an I only like nuts in my food if they're really finely chopped, or if they're candied, lol
That sounds great! I saved the recipe... but I don't have a food processor, so not sure how that part's going to work. If I dice really finely with a knife? Not the same thing... hm. Must ponder how to make this, cuz it sounds like a perfect lunch for me.
that looks DELICIOUS! i've been looking for spaghetti recipes that are a little something different!
