Zucchini Recipe

I am overloaded with zucchini! Here's a recipe that uses zucchini and can be made ahead of time.

1/2 cup mayo

1/4 cup sour cream

1 packet ranch seasoning / dip

2 1/2 cups rotini pasta (I used the multi colored)

2  zucchini (I used 1 yellow butterstick and 1 green)

1  yellow squash

1 Vidalia onion (optional)

Boil pasta according to package directions. Cut vegetables in to matchsticks. Leave the yellow squash a little bigger than the zucchini. In a large bowl, mix sour cream, mayo, and ranch seasoning. Set aside. During the last 2 minutes that the pasta cooks, add the vegetables. Drain and rinse to cool. Toss ranch mixture and pasta / vegetable mixture together. Allow to chill before serving.

A couple of notes:

• Boiling the veggies for a minute just brings out the flavor. Don't cook them!
• You could also add crumbled bacon and tomatoes. I just didn't have any.
• If you use a regular onion, you may want to use less. Vidalia's are sweet, so I used a whole one.
