Sitting down with an easy and fast zucchini garlic pasta and my favorite film from 1987…#Mannequin! I totally forgot Estelle Getty is in it, and I remember loving the music (and still do). Yeah, it’s cheesy, but I’m in uber nostalgia mode…and loving it! A family favorite, zucchini & garlic pasta is a light summer dish. With an already busy week, I didn’t grocery shop and had limited ingredients. I added tuna as a twist, but you could leave it out or substitute with chicken.
This #80sKid gives the movie & pasta two thumbs up!
