2 tsp freshly grated lemon zest

8 oz whole-wheat fettuccine or spaghetti (see Ingredient note)

3 clove garlic, minced
2 oz shiitake mushroom, stemmed and sliced
2 tsp freshly grated lemon zest
2 Tbsp lemon juice
¼ tsp salt, or to taste
freshly ground pepper to taste
8 oz whole-wheat fettuccine or spaghetti (see Ingredient note)

Directions
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil for cooking pasta.
- Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over low heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant but not browned, about 1 minute. Add mushrooms and increase heat to medium-high; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in lemon zest, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
- Meanwhile, cook pasta, stirring occasionally, until just tender, 9 to 11 minutes or according to package directions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid.
- Add the pasta, the reserved cooking liquid, Parmesan and 1/4 cup basil to the mushrooms in the skillet; toss to coat well. Serve immediately, garnished with remaining basil.
Ingredient Note: Whole-wheat pastas are higher in fiber than white pastas. They can be found in health-food stores and some large supermarkets.
