Ohh the deliciousness of pasta, I could eat it all day, every day. I'm surprised I have zero Italian in me... Anyways, pasta salad is one of my all time favorite meals! Unfortunately, (like everything that tasts amazing) it's not all that good for you *sigh*... So, in an effort to cut back on carbs we've started replacing all our regular noodles with homemade veggie noodles! And since they are the shape of noodles, I think it tricks my mind into thinking they are just as delicious as regular noodles. But really, they are pretty dang good. So, here is a recipe for simple pasta salad using zucchini as the noodles. I highly recommend getting a spiralizer, the one I have I found at our local grocery store for about $14.00 and it works great!
Serves: 1
Ingredients:
- half a zucchini
- 1Tbs black olives
- 1Tbs green olives
- 1Tbs sliced or cubed pepperonis
- 2Tbs mozzarella cheese (cubed or shredded)
- Italian dressing to taste
Step 1: buy yourself a spiralizer
Step two, spiralize your zucchini (or any other veggie you want to use!)
Step three: slice up olives, cheese & pepperoni
Step four: place all ingredients in a bowl and pour desired amount of Italian dressing over everything. Stir & enjoy!
Delicious!
