Serve Clams Over Zucchini Linguine

In a few days its National Linguine Day. Whenever I hear thats its so-and-so national food day, my first thought is, Who picks these days?! Is there a committee somewhere, in a room, just strategizing which days should be national food holidays? I like to think that it might be the most fun job ever. They cant hire me for the job because I would make every single day: National Corgi Day or National Lets Eat Pizza Day or National Doughnut Day. I would not offer enough variety.

But today, were sticking with the scheduled program. Were exploring good ol National Linguine Day with a twist of an old classic. Ive been trying to eat a little bit healthier lately so I wanted to make a slightly healthier slant on classic linguine.

Im doing so by adding some zucchini because we all have so much of it right now and Im using whole wheat pasta instead of regular pasta, which I love.

And just for some good balance, I added a bit of Pecorino Romano because we need flavor!
