This beautiful but simple pasta dish is a distant cousin to Spaghetti alla Nerano, but with punchy flavor from sungold tomatoes, gentle acid from white wine and a touch of cream to accent the the melty zucchini. The dish comes together in minutes, can easily be made plant-based and is one of the most comforting summer pasta recipes that I like to whip up for an easy dinner.
