Pasta-Zucchini-Mushroom Toss With Garlic-Herb Sauce for One

VickyJ's Note:

I bought some zucchini at a farmers' market today. In the fridge, I had fresh mushrooms and decided on this recipe. It's a great way to enjoy garden vegetables of the summer season. This can easily be expanded for more servings.

I halfed the red pepper flakes and it was still really spicy. I would leave that ingredient out if you can't handle spicy food. It was still really good though.
