Blog: Three in One Recipe

So, I had a bunch of nothing in the frig the other night and a hungry family.  I had to figure out a meal, and fast.  And so, I created a dinner called Zucchini, Carrots & Arugula over Whole Wheat Pasta.

I had a bunch of carrots starting to go soft, so I peeled them and cut them into juilanne strips.  I had two small zucchinis (use many more if you want!) so I peeled them and cut them into julianne strips.  I heated up two tablespoons of olive oil in a pan and cooked the carrots and zucchini, letting them brown just a bit.  I saw some garlic on the counter, so what the heck, I added two cloves (sliced because I like the chunks).  Then, I saw a bag of arugula in the frig.  I didn’t feel like making a side salad, so I tossed a healthy bunch of arugula into the pan with the zuchs and carrots.  I cooked it all until the arugula wilted.  (While all this was going on I boiled water and cooked up whole wheat penne)  When the penned was done I poured the veggies over the pastas and called the fam for dinner for my “Three in One” recipe.  We topped it with Parmesan cheese.  It was delicious!  Try it.
