ZUCCHINI & CARROT RIBBON FETTUCINI



Zucchini & Carrot Ribbon Fettucini image

I have been making this recipe for years and years. Found it originally on a box of Mueller's pasta and it has been a hit since then. A pretty side dish to any meal - even pretty enough for guests. My daughter still requests this for her birthday dinner. It does not have a cheese sauce (see other recipes here on Zaar for that) but you do have the option of topping it with some freshly grated Parmesan cheese but we enjoy it with just a basic buttered coating more often. Hope you enjoy!

This comes from Lisa Lintner's "Vegetables" cookbook. She suggests adding a little chopped ham as a variation, or replacing some of the carrot with sweet potato.
