Pasta cremosa zucchine e pomodorini

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast is dairy-free and adds a cheesy flavor.

cherry tomatoes

🥗Healthier: sundried tomatoes

💰Cheaper: canned diced tomatoes

Canned tomatoes are more affordable and have a longer shelf life.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is a budget-friendly alternative with a neutral flavor.

Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente.

In a pan, heat olive oil and sauté the garlic until fragrant.

Add the zucchini and cook until soft, then blend to create a creamy sauce.

Mix in the cooked pasta, adding the cherry tomatoes, olives, and pine nuts.

Serve warm, topped with grated parmesan if desired.
