If you don’t have a veggie spiralizer yet, they are an easy, great way to save money in the long run because all you need is a zucchini and your off to the races! This tool disassembles in a pinch to make it easy to throw into the dishwasher or in my case, rinse and wipe off.
I made a vietnamese style sauce with my zoodles today with a few simple ingredients. I’m trying to minimize my dairy intake so this dish is just what the dr. ordered.
Recipe:
- Spiralized zucchini
- 1 egg
- 2 small garlic cloves
