A Zucchini Low Carb Staple!
Here’s a quick bite and a low carb staple in our kitchen – how to make zoodles! It’s a simple technique that’ll mix up dinner in a pinch. Zucchini can be served in many ways, but zoodles are probably the most fun. And now that I think about it, it’s probably the quickest too.
We usually slice our zucchini into spears and roast or fry them. But because zoodles are so thin, they actually end up cooking much quicker than larger chunks of zucchini. They’re a favorite among kids and adults alike and are super versatile. We like to pair them with shrimp and ground beef or just serve them on the side of pretty much any low carb dinner we come up with. They’re fantastic smothered in a low carb marinara sauce or a creamy alfredo!

| Servings: serving |
- 1 zucchini
- Wash your zucchini and trim the ends off.
- Using your zoodler, spiralize your zucchini by twisting it into the tool like a pencil into a pencil sharpener. Do this until almost the entire zucchini is spiralized.
- Alternatively, you can use a special vegetable peeler with teeth so create your noodles.
- The very end up of it may be difficult to fit without hurting your fingers so you should end up with something like this:
- Heat up a pan with a bit of olive oil on medium heat and cook your zoodles for about 5 minutes. Use tongs to turn them continuously. The zoodles should be softer but not soggy. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and enjoy with your favorite dish!
