Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 2
Bring eight cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan with Salt (1/2 Tbsp) .
Step 3
Cut Zucchini (1/2) into half inch slices, on a diagonal. Place in a single layer on a sheet pan lined with foil and set aside.
Step 4
Remove Fresh Basil (1/2 cup) from their stems. Chiffonade the basil by stacking the leaves into a neat pile. Slice very thinly across. Set aside.
Step 5
Once the water has started to boil, add Whole Grain Penne (1 cup) and stir. Cook for 9 minutes, or until desired texture. Drain the pasta in a colander and reserve a quarter cup of the pasta water, and set aside.
Step 6
Meanwhile, drizzle Olive Oil (1 tsp) over the zucchini. Sprinkle Parmesan Cheese (2 Tbsp) , Salt (1/4 tsp) and Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp) over the zucchini. Roast in the oven for 9 minutes.
Step 7
Remove from oven and sprinkle with a quarter of the sliced basil leaves, and set aside.
Step 8
Heat Olive Oil (1 Tbsp) in a large saute pan over medium low heat. Add the Garlic (1 clove) and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 9
Add the Sun-Dried Tomatoes (3/4 cup) , Salt (1/2 tsp) , Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp) and Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (1/8 tsp) . Continue to saute for 3 minutes.
Step 10
Add the penne pasta, the quarter cup of reserved pasta water, and Olive Oil (1 Tbsp) . Toss to coat.
Step 11
Meanwhile, add Pine Nuts (2 Tbsp) and the Fresh Baby Spinach (3 3/4 cups) and remaining basil to the pasta mixture and toss to combine. Cook for 2 minutes to allow the spinach to wilt slightly.
Step 12
Place the pasta in the center of two plates. Top with Crumbled Feta Cheese (1/4 cup) . Place the zucchini on the side.
Step 13
Serve and enjoy!
