Carbonara Farfalle with Zucchini and Sausage


This recipe is quick and easy, most difficult task is prepping sausage & bacon (whew!).
Ingredients:
  • 5 tablespoons olive oil
  • 5 small zucchini, chopped (minced for picky eaters)
  • 2 onions, minced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 (16 ounce) package farfalle pasta
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Optional: Add Bacon (cooked and pieced) and/or Sausage
Directions:
  1. Heat oil in large skillet over medium high heat. Add zucchini, and saute quickly until golden. Remove and set aside.
  2. Add onion and garlic to the pan, and saute until golden. Stir in cream; increase heat, and boil until sauce is reduced by one third.
  3. Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain.
  4. Add noodles, zucchini, 1/2 cup cheese, and salt and pepper to the cream sauce. Toss thoroughly until heated through. Serve immediately with additional grated parmesan cheese. (Add meat(s) here).
