I no longer eat pasta. It contains wheat and it is very high in carbohydrates. So, instead of spaghetti, I use these Zoodles. Not only are they delicious, but they are a great way to boost your vegie intake. This recipe is best made fresh as it doesn't really keep.
Serves: 1-2
1-2 zucchinis
Serves: 1-2
1-2 zucchinis
1 tbsp black pepper
1 tbsp coconut oil
Cut ends off zucchini.
Use a julienne peeler peel from top of zucchini to bottom, creating long, spaghetti like "noodles". Peel around the outer of zucchini, stopping when you start to hit the inner seeds (the seeded area is not suitable to use as it is not as rigid as the outer area).
Place zoodles strands on paper towel, and sprinkle with a small amount of salt. Cover with paper towel and press down to absorb excess moisture from zucchini. Let sit for five minutes.
Heat a large frying pan. Add coconut oil, melt, and zucchini "noodles."
Saute "noodles" for 2 to 3 minutes.
Season with freshly grated black pepper and salt if desired to taste.
Serve with your favorite pasta sauce.
