- Cook the pasta. Drain the pasta and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large pan, add in the garlic, chile pepper and onion. Saute/fry about 2 min, turning once or possibly twice till softened slightly. Add in the zucchini and sauce for 2 min. Add in the wine, lime juice and zest and cook for 2 min. Add in the pasta. Toss and heat thoroughly. Add in the basil.
- Remove from the heat. Add in the creme fraiche substitute, salt and pepper to taste. Serve at once.
- Changes: The recipe was adapted from the listed source that used green onion, and 1/4-c. of real creme fraiche per serving.
- Description:"Fresh vegetarian pasta entree"
- NOTES : We liked this!-) It might be a little dry for some. It's a fast meal. Could be super fast if we plan ahead and have the pasta cooked and ready to add in. The original recipe used real creme fraiche; we used a lowfat alternative.
- This would pack well for a lunch and tastes good at room temperature.
- Creme fraiche substitute: Mix 2 Tbsp. of plain fat free yogurt with 1 tsp. fat free half. EACH serving: 397 cals, 4g total fat (9%), 6g fiber. 7pts.
- Tested with several pinches of red pepper flakes and the yogurt substitute for creme fresh. The flavor was very refreshing and a little too warm, even for our tastes. Nothing competes with the pepper. If you don't like chile pepper, substitute a little fennel. A Pasta Lover's entree. Make the pasta ahead.
