Adam and I are trying to join the Meatless Monday movement to eat a little healthier and lower our carbon footprint. And this Lemon Spaghetti recipe from Giada De Laurentiis is so perfect on a hot night that neither of us missed the meat. And so insanely fast and easy that it feels odd posting photos. But I’ll post a couple. You could halve this recipe for 2, or have lunch leftovers.
Ingredients
1 pound spaghetti
2/3 cup olive oil
2/3 cup grated Parmesan
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 3 lemons)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
