One Pot Pasta

I ran across this recipe just the other day and I had to try it just to see if it would work.  Not only did it work but it was easy and delicious.  Larry even liked it and he's not really a pasta fan.  As always, this is my easy version of the original recipe.

1 package of sliced mushrooms
1 teaspoon of minced garlic
2/3 cup frozen green peas
1/4 teaspoon of thyme
2 zucchini, washed and cut into bite size pieces or thinly sliced
1/2 box angel hair pasta
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste

In a dutch oven or other large pan, add about 2 1/4 cups of water.  Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add garlic and thyme.  Add spaghetti and then top with the mushrooms, peas and zucchini.
Bring to a boil and then reduce heat and cook uncovered for 10 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed.  Stir in parmesan and cream and serve immediately.

I think next time I might add cooked chicken or shrimp at the last minute.
