The weather has finally gotten nicer! As I'm typing this, we are expected to have our first day that is 70+ degrees and I am so excited. With the nicer weather comes lighter and fresher foods and I love it. I am all about fresh produce and this meal made the perfect lunch. I made it in quantity and my kids and I enjoyed it a couple of days in a row for quick lunches.

I used a bean based pasta which is my favorite and I also love using whole-wheat noodles in pasta recipes. I had a couple of zucchini and summer squash on hand and decided to spiralize them instead of chopping them up and my whole family loved it. With the Greek theme of this recipe, feel free to add in olives, chickpeas, chicken, beets or anything else you enjoy.
