INSTRUCTIONS
Cook the pasta in plenty of boiling, salted water, stirring occasionally,
until al dente, or firm to the bite, 10 to 12 minutes. Before draining,
ladle out 1/2 cup of the boiling cooking water and reserve.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the
scallion and garlic; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the zucchini and
yellow squash and cook, stirring, over medium-low heat just until wilted,
about 3 minutes.
Toss the pasta with the zucchini mixture and stir in the basil, mint,
reserved cooking water and 1 tablespoon of the cheese. Spoon onto plates,
and serve with a light sprinkling of cheese over each serving.

A Message from our Provider:
“A cheerful spirit is one of the most valuable gifts ever bestowed upon humanity by a kind Creator. It is the sweetest and most fragrant flower of the Spirit, that constantly sends out its beauty and fragrance, and blesses everything within its reach. It will sustain the soul in the darkest and most dreary places of this world. It will hold in check the demons of despair, and stifle the power of discouragement and hopelessness. It is the brightest star that ever cast its radiance over the darkened soul, and one that seldom sets in the gloom of morbid fancies and forboding imaginations.”
