We are going to prepare a healthy pasta dish, made with very tender zucchini. If you find them in the market, I recommend that you take advantage of all their properties and consume them raw.
We are going to marinate them with extra virgin olive oil with lemon to obtain an original and flavorful dish. We will use whole wheat pasta but you can substitute it for the one you are used to consuming at home.
The zucchini will have to be cut into thin slices so, if you have mandolin, this is a good time to use it.

Ingredients
- 350 g of whole wheat pasta
- 2 new zucchini
- 70 g of olives
- The skin of 1 lemon and 1 tablespoon of its juice
- 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
- Sal Island
- 1 garlic clove
- Thyme
Preparation
We wash the zucchini.
In raw, we cut them into very thin slices, with the knife or with a mandolin.
We put them in a bowl or in a small source. We add the olives.
Add a little salt, the grated lemon peel, a tablespoon of lemon juice and the extra virgin olive oil.
We stir well and let it rest.
We take advantage of this time to cook the pasta, in plenty of salty water and following the manufacturer's instructions.
Once the pasta is cooked, we drain it slightly and put it in a large bowl.
We also put the previous preparation in that bowl and stir.
Cut the garlic clove in half and spread each plate with one of the halves.
We serve our zucchini pasta immediately and sprinkle with our favorite aromatic herbs.
