Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
8ouncesFusilli
½cupZucchini, chopped into bite- sized pieces
2tablespoonsRosemary, chopped
3eachesGarlic cloves, minced
1mediumTomato, diced
Salt & pepper
3tablespoonsOlive oil
2tablespoonsRed wine vinegar

Directions

Cook pasta until *al dente*. About 1 minute before it has finished cooking, add the chopped zucchini. Remove from heat & drain. Let cool slightly.

While the pasta is cooking. Whisk together the oil, wine vinegar, salt, pepper & garlic. Turn into a bowl & toss in the rosemary & tomato. When the pasta & zucchini have cooked, toss with the marinade. Let cool to room temperature & then lightly chill before serving.

NOTE: Obviously, fresh rosemary is best for this dish, but it can be made with dried. I roughly crush the dried rosemary in a mortar & pestle before using it.
