So What the Heck are Zoodles?

​Zoodles are spaghetti-like noodles made from raw zucchini and a fast, delicious way to fit more vegetables and fun into your diet.
 
No matter your dietary needs or preferences, Zoodles promote gluten free, paleo, primal, vegan, vegetarian, low carb & wheat belly friendly lifestyles. They are low calorie, low carb, gluten free and grain free. 
Zoodles are nutritious and healthy containing protein, fiber, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, Vitamin A, Vitamin B6, riboflavin, folate, manganese, and potassium. Cooking with Zoodles is an unbelievably healthy alternative to pasta and great way to increase your intake of vegetables.  

Zoodles are low in calories making them very popular with anyone wanting to lose weight.  They are low in natural sugars and starches than other grains or root vegetables so they are low on the glycemic index.  This is important for those who are prediabetic or diabetic or anyone mindful of their blood sugar levels. 

Zoodles are low in carbs so you won’t be adding excess to your meals as with traditional pasta. Substitute Zoodles in any pasta dish for added flavor and color, such as marina, meatballs, pesto dishes, or get really creative and use in your favorite salads.

 
Zoodles reduce prep time and quick and easy to reduce prep time and allow you to eat healthier.  All you need is a spiralizer.  (I included a link below. There are many types like this inexpensive, handheld spiralizer to more expensive, professional spiralizers.) A spiralizer makes cooking with vegetables quick and easy and a lot of fun!  Use your spiralizer not only with zucchini, but carrots, cucumbers, beets, sweet potatoes - anything you can imagine. 

One of my favorite meal combos is shrimp with garlic and cilantro served on Zoodles. I included a recipe below for you to try.   

So get creative, healthy and have some fun!  Zoodles fit perfectly into a health-conscious lifestyle.
