Pasta with Zucchini and Basil, Fresh and Tasty

Today I prepared one of the pastas I love during this period. Pasta with zucchini and basil. I discovered pasta with zucchini and basil by accident. Initially, it was supposed to be a simple pasta with zucchini, but at the last minute, since I had tons of basil, I decided to add some to the zucchini. And that’s when my love for this pasta was born. Delicious and very easy to prepare. Basil pairs perfectly with zucchini, try it. If you also, like me, love zucchini, try also;
