"Crab" Spaghetti

1 pound whole wheat thin spaghetti
2-4 T Olive oil
2 onions, chopped
2-3 small zucchini, halved and sliced into 1/2" slices
5 cloves garlic, sliced
1 8 oz pkg imitation crab
about 10 leaves fresh basil
salt to taste

Heat olive oil in large skillet, saute onion and zucchini until tender, about 15 minutes. Add garlic during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
While that is cooking, boil water and cook spaghetti according to package directions.
Take the crab out of the package and cut into bite size pieces. Add to the top of the cooked zucchini mixture, don't stir it in yet, cover and turn the heat down to low. Heat until crab is hot, then gently toss together. Turn off heat.
When spaghetti is al dente, drain and return to pot. Add zucchini and crab mixture, toss gently and salt to taste. Tear basil up and top individual portions with it.
