Want a skinny way to address your pasta cravings?
Try this alternative! It's totally delish, will tip the scale in your favor
. and will get raves around the dinner table. Here's my famous Skinny Zucchini Spaghetti recipe for two savory servings:
Skinny Zucchini Spaghetti
• 3 medium zucchini, julienned
• 2 yellow crookneck squash, julienned
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• Marinara sauce to taste
Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, and julienned zucchini and squash (use julienne peeler) to pan. Cook until the veggies soften but aren't mushy. Top with marinara sauce, which will score you lots of beneficial lycopene, and a dash of parmesan cheese.
The result: A tasty dish that looks just like pasta, but is ideal for anyone limiting carbs or gluten. Even kids love it (try getting them to eat zucchini any other way)!
