What I will show you is the technique I use to create this dish you can substitute any seasonal veggies or cheese you prefer for what is listed below – What is great about this sauce is that it is mostly pasta water so it is very Low-cal/Low-fat when compared to a cream or meat sauce

2 Zucchini
1 Asparagus Bunch
