Zucchini noodles are a low-calorie substitute to flour noodles. They can be make ahead of time, and store for 2-3 days. If you purchase zucchini don’t buy them too big, you’ll want them to fit through the spiralizer. I grow zucchini in whiskey barrels -they’re easy to grow in full sun and fairly low maintenance. I like the GEFU spiralizer best, but there are a variety available on the market.
Ways to eat zucchini noodles:
- Cooked with garlic, olive oil and topped with parmesan
- Mixed with lentils, tomatoes, feta and a bit of soy sauce and balsamic vinegar
- With beans, quinoa and dressing
- With tomato sauce and shaved romano
- With chicken or shrimp stir-fry
- With pesto and olives
- Raw as a salad topping
