Meatless Mediterranean Pasta

This is a great meatless meal! My favourite flavours, crisp zucchini, and soft buttery beans with salty feta in every bite... This one is a keeper

Ingredients:
8 oz pasta (use whole grain pasta for extra protein)
1 T olive oil
1 medium zucchini, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
10 grape tomatoes, quartered
1 can cannelini beans, drained
1 small can of sliced black olives, drained
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 c reserved pasta water
1/2 c crumbled feta
1 T chopped fresh basil

Cook pasta according to package directions. Heat up olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced zucchini and cook for about 2 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds. Add beans, tomatoes and olives. Cook for about 5 minutes and add drained pasta and reserved pasta water.  Stir to combine, season to taste and add feta and basil.
