  • Please keep in mind that the nutritional information is calculated using a nutrition facts calculator. It is a rough estimate and can vary greatly based on the products used.
  • Use a spiralizer for the best zoodle results!
  • Make sure you have spiralized the zucchini into zoodles before you get started.
  • If you want to dip your toe into zoodles, you can always do a 50/50 mix of zoodles and whole wheat pasta. You'll have to cook the whole wheat pasta prior to the rest of the recipe.
  • Add some crushed chili flakes for a kick of heat.
  • Cut the zoodles into 6-inch lengths so they are easier to eat.
  • Don't overcook the zoodles or they will become too watery.
  • For an extra Italian twist, sprinkle on some Parmesan before serving.
  • Top with parsley for a pop of freshness
  • Serve immediately.
