Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This recipe is on repeat in our house (since 2024). It is delicious and very forgiving. Most summer squash can be subbed for the zucchini. Can make with or without the basil. It is rich, hearty, and one of our faves.

    I have tried lots of variations of pasta with creamy zucchini sauce and this may be my favorite. It's very rich and creamy and has a nice balance of flavors. We served it, as suggested, with a simple tomato salad.

    Despite the small amount of cream, this is almost too rich and creamy.
