Preparation

Step 1

Spray a non-stick pan with oil. Add onion and garlic. Cook and stir over medium heat for 3 mins. until onions are softened. Add zucchini and cook 3 more mins. Add tomatoes and liquid, tomato sauce, tomato paste, oregano, basil, pepper and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered for 10 mins.

While sauce is simmering, prepare penne according to directions. Drain well and keep warm.
