Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Boil the pasta and drain a few minutes before the recommended time on the package (al dente). Set aside.
- In a medium skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Saute the zucchini while stirring occasionally until it is tender when pierced with a fork, about 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl mix together the crushed tomatoes, heavy cream, cheeses, basil, salt, and pepper then stir in the pasta and zucchini.
- Pour into a large rectangular baking dish. Garnish with dollops of ricotta cheese (if desired) and bake until bubbly, about 20 minutes.
- Flip the oven to the broiler setting and cook until the cheese on top is golden brown, about 1 to 2 more minutes. Serve warm.

- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.
