Spaghetti Parmesan

adapted from Cheap, Healthy, Good

This was an easy pasta dish made great through Parmesan.

Serves 4

3/4 lb pasta, like linguine or spaghetti

1 Tbsp olive oil

2 medium zucchinis, chopped into moons

3 tomatoes, seeded and diced

1 onion, diced (I used purple onions, but you could use any kind)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1/2 tsp crushed red pepper

1 tsp lemon pepper

salt to taste

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Cook and drain pasta, reserving 1/3 cup pasta water.

While pasta is cooking, saute onion and garlic in a skillet. Once softened, add zucchini, spices, chickpeas, and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until everything is warmed through. Zucchini should still have a little bite to them. Take the whole pan off the heat.

Combine with pasta and half of the cheese and 1/3 cup of water. Stir together until parmesan is incorporated into the dish.

Serve with remaining parmesan sprinkled on top.
