Ingredients | Marathon Nutrition Guide

6 ounces Barilla® Spaghetti

1 (6.3 ounce) jar Barilla® Pesto

2 teaspoons salt

5 ounces fresh green beans, trimmed

1 extra large zucchini, spiralized

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon red pepper flakes (Optional)

2 teaspoons toasted pine nuts

Directions

Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add salt and green beans. Simmer 1 minute. Add spaghetti and continue cooking over medium to medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; add spiralized zucchini. Stir gently and continue simmering until spaghetti is tender yet firm to the bite, 2 or 3 minutes. Reserve about 1/2 cup cooking water. Drain the spaghetti and vegetables.

Heat pesto in a pot over medium-low heat; add a few tablespoons of cooking water to thin slightly; stir. Transfer drained spaghetti and vegetables to pot; mix gently to coat with the sauce.

Transfer spaghetti to a warmed serving bowl. Drizzle with olive oil; top with grated cheese, red pepper flakes, and pine nuts.
