Shrimp and Summer Squash Bow-Ties

Still looking for ways to use that zucchini and yellow squash? This recipe will use both!

INGREDIENTS
• 12 oz farfalle bow ties, dry
• 2 zucchini

• 1/2 cup(s) chives, thinly sliced

DIRECTIONS
1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Set aside.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Slice zucchini and squash into rounds (about 1/4 inch thick) and sauté for 10 minutes. Add shrimp (we used medium) and sauté for 3 minutes.
3. Add lemon juice, dried basil and oregano, and garlic. Season with kosher salt and pepper. Cook until shrimp are done.
4. Combine shrimp mixture with pasta and sprinkle with chives. Toss and serve.
