linguine with summer squash, tomatoes, and basil

linguine with summer squash, tomatoes, and basil
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 large zucchini, sliced into thin rounds
  • 1 large yellow squash, sliced into thin rounds
  • 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
  • 1 (16 ounce) package fresh linguine pasta
  • 1 (8 ounce) container skim milk ricotta cheese, divided
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil


  1. Whisk olive oil, garlic, 1/2 cup of basil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add zucchini, yellow squash, and tomatoes to the oil mixture and toss to coat.
  2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 5 to 10 minutes; drain. Transfer pasta to a serving bowl.
  3. While the pasta is warm, fold in half of vegetable mixture along with 2 tablespoons ricotta cheese, until pasta is coated and vegetables are evenly dispersed. Top with remaining vegetable mixture. Spoon remaining ricotta on top. Sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped basil over the dish. Season with salt and pepper to serve.
