Directions

There's no need to pre-cook the pasta in this easy recipe! Saute the onion, garlic, zucchini and mushrooms in a nonstick skillet until they are barely tender. (Add enough water to prevent sticking.) Add the tomatoes, water, TSP, Italian herbs, red pepper flakes, fennel seed and pasta. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium low and cover.

Simmer for about 10 minutes, until pasta is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
