Summer Squash Spaghetti

The Spiral Path Farm goldbar squash and zucchini should be arriving in your store any day now! We now have a code for SP veggie noodles, so spiralize away! It's only fitting that we take a break from our (albeit delicious salads) and show off our culinary prowess by whipping up a 10 minute spaghetti. We have several different pasta sauces that pair well with these noodles, you can demo whatever you have the most of. You can pair this with cheese or add no cheese for a completely vegan dish. If you tend to have a meat-loving crowd, you can add one of the sausages below.

Create your own veggie pasta dish!!

Sauce (Wegmans Italian Classics Organic Pasta Sauces-$2.99):
Chunky Marinara (Vegan)
Roasted Garlic (Vegan)
Grandpa's Sauce Goes Vegetarian (Vegan)
Roasted Tomato and Red Wine (Vegan)
Blush (NOT Vegan)

Our Organic Basting Oil is also an option as well.
Cheese (optional)
Wegmans Italian Classics Italian Blend Cheese
Wegmans Italian Classics Parmigiano Reggiano
 Organic Valley Organic Parmesan

Meat (optional) (Wegmans Organic Chicken Sausages-*all are fully cooked*-$6.59):
Italian with Red Peppers
Spinach and Garlic with Asiago
Wild Mushroom and Herb

Tools:
Induction Burner
Frying Pan (preferably w/ lid)
Non-scratch tongs (I like OXO, as always)
2 Cambros w/ lids for noodles and sausage
Kitchen Shears
Cutting board/knife (if adding sausage)
Spiralizer (Only if you want to demonstrate how we actually make the noodles.)
(The Veggetti Pro will work just fine. We usually sell it in GM.  It's a cross merchandising opportunity!!)

Merchandising:
In a 2 ft case: 2-3 rows of veggie noodles with "From Farms Near Our Stores" stickers, 1 row of chicken sausage (optional). Top of case: cheese and sauce/basting oil. If you have any other room near your display you can advertise Veggetti Pros.

Directions:

1. Wash squash and chop off ends.
2. Spiralize squash. Line a cambro with paper towels and place noodles in cambro.
3. Cut up the noodles with the shears or it will be a bear to get into the little cups! Cover with another paper towel and the lid.
4. (optional) Cut up the sausages into bite sized pieces (slice lengthwise and then into slices) and place into cambro.
5. Heat the sauce in the pan.
6. (optional) Add sausage to pan and heat in the sauce.
7. Add noodles, toss to coat.
8. Cover (optional) and let cook until soft and slightly wilted.
9. Remove cover and sprinkle with cheese if desired.
10. Serve.

Ask your coordinator if there are coupons for the Wegmans Organic Sauce available.
