moar pasta!

This particular dish got rave reviews from my omnivorous brother. It turns out that a heaping spoonful of minced garlic + five heaping spoonfuls of earth balance = a nice cheesy flavor. It's pure vegan wizardry!

The following recipe serves two:

- pasta (I used tricolor curly things)
- 4 zucchini
- earth balance
- minced garlic
- emeril's essence (I love this shit!)
- dried red pepper flakes
- dried thyme, basil, and oregano to taste
- salt and pepper to taste

1. Chop the zucchini into thin slices. Cook the slices over medium heat in a large frying pan. Boil the pasta (no salt) while the zucchini is cooking. Both should take around 10 minutes.
2. Drain the pasta and mix it in with the zucchini in the frying pan. Add a heaping spoonful of minced garlic and at least four spoonfuls of earth balance (you know you love it). Cook it all together, stirring constantly, until all the earth balance is melted.
3. Add the essence, pepper flakes, herbs, and salt & pepper to taste.

Yay!

I made up this recipe to get rid of the leftover zucchini, so the measurements are a little, um, improvisational. More than a spoonful of garlic would probably taste like death, but you can never go wrong with MOAR EARTH BALANCE!! Half the fun of cooking is experimenting anyways. :P
