Spaghetti Zoodles or Stir Fry Zoodles

Image
I recently was given a cool pearl about zucchini.  You can make zoodles out of zucchini.  How cool is that!!!  So my understanding is that places like Trader Joes will sell frozen zoodles, but I decided to just buy the zucchini fresh and spiralize them.  My younger daughter loves to spiralize the zucchini.  This is the spiralizer I purchased, and I love it. Things to Note:  After the zucchini are spiralized, put then between 2 paper towels...arranging them across the paper towel.  Leave them for at least 30 minutes to dry out so the water gets absorbed as much as possible.  Then you can just stir fry them up on a pan.  Sometimes I spray the pan with olive oil Pam spray..sometimes not.  It doesn't really matter. This is great for making stir fry's or just use the zoodles as the noodle base for your favorite spaghetti sauce. Another awesome option!!! Before After
