Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season generously with salt. Add the spaghetti, stir and cook until al dente, 6 to 8 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water, then drain the spaghetti.
- Meanwhile, add the olive oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced zucchini and cook until lightly browned but still slightly firm, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes, garlic and habanero and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine, 1 tablespoon of the butter and the reserved pasta water and cook for another minute. Turn off the heat, add the crab and gently stir to mix everything.
- Add the drained spaghetti, then add the parsley, basil and lemon zest. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, some salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil and stir to combine. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the dill and more basil.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Heat water on stove at medium temperature, add red peppers. Boil until peppers soften (about 7-10 minutes). While red peppers soften, chop onion, cilantro and mix together. Mix the two cheeses together in a bowl. When red peppers soften, transfer them into blender. Add 2 cups of the same boiled water, salt, and garlic to blender. Blend for 2-3 minutes. Using a bowl and a strainer, strain this mixture to remove seeds and remaining skin. Add 1 cup of HERDEZ® Salsa Casera to mixture. Mix well. Add grapeseed oil to skillet and heat. Soften tortillas in grapeseed oil for 10-20 sec. Set on paper towel until all tortillas are done. Dip tortillas into red sauce and lay on flat surface, add crab and roll. Place rolled tortillas into a 9 x 13 pan. Use remaining red sauce to cover rolled tortillas. Pour 1/2 cup of remaining HERDEZ® salsa over mixture. Sprinkle cheese over the salsa. Pour remaining 1/2 cups of HERDEZ® salsa over cheese. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Remove from oven. Sprinkle the onion and cilantro mixture over the cheese. Drizzle the Mexican cream over mixture. Serves 4
- Guacamole:
- Mix together mashed avocado, diced onions, diced tomatoes, lime juice and HERDEZ® Salsa Verde. Serve.
A FAREWELL TO BASIL FETTUCCINE
I made this while watching 'A Farewell to Arms' on TV and realized the title suited the intent of the pasta, which was to celebrate the last gleanings from my rather prolific basil patch. If you feel the need to serve this with a sauce, consider a butter garlic sauce or a white wine sauce with chicken. Whatever you choose to accompany this with, enjoy it!

Steps:
- Using a food processor, process basil leaves until chopped very fine. Add 1 1/2 cups of flour and pulse two or three times, or until combined. Add egg, 1 teaspoon oil, and the water until dough forms a ball shape. If dough seems dry, add a bit more water. Wrap dough in a piece of plastic wrap which has been coated in a few drops of olive oil. Refrigerate dough for 2 hours.
- Remove dough from refrigerator, and cut into 6 equal size portions. Run pasta though pasta machine, or roll with rolling pin to desired thickness. Use the additional flour to coat pasta while rolling.
- Allow pasta to dry for one hour prior to cooking.
- Cook in a large pot of boiling water until al dente. This should take only a 3 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the pasta.
