I’m loving the zucchini lately! Mr. FBBQ and I have made it to the Farmer’s Market the last few Saturdays so I have a lot of fresh veggies to cook with! For this dish, I had to buy some baby spinach. But we got the zucchini from the Farmer’s Market! I also needed some noodles, tahini, dill weed, red beans, salt, pepper, and a lemon.
At the last minute I decided to cook some mushrooms and an onion that I had bought at the Farmer’s Market too.
Cook the noodles. Heat up the beans as well.
Steam the zucchini. Once it’s softened, add the zucchini to the pan with the onion and mushrooms and grill it up. The beans were originally meant to be part of the sauce for this dish. The plan was to blend the beans, some water, tahini, dill weed, salt and pepper, and lemon juice in the food processor. It turned out really watery and there were bean bits in it. I did not end up using it. I did use the rest of the beans in the dish though! This dish also turned out tasty even without the sauce.
The noodles are the base for this dish. You can use any type of noodle. I’ve really liked these spirals lately. I also have a lot of them!
Top the noodles with the beans (after draining the liquid).
Before you remove the pan with the onion, mushroom, and zucchini from the burner, put the spinach in the pan until it wilts. Add this mixture to the noodles and beans. I also added some little tomatoes. Lastly, squeeze some fresh lemon over the whole dish. Delicious!!
