Zucchini noodles - all the "pasta" feel, none of the guilt!!

Last night I finally tried zucchini noodles in our dinner. I love when hubby makes his homemade pasta sauce but I hate the full feeling from all those carbs/starches. 

So I made zucchini noodles for us adults and regular noodles for the kiddos. 

I actually enjoyed it. I was able to have the yummy pasta sauce without all the guilt associated with eating regular noodles. 

Take 1 to 2 zucchini (ours were fresh from our garden - bonus!!) and cut the ends off. Lay a box cheese grater on its side, sharp edges pointed up. Slide the zucchini along the cheese grater to create long ribbons. Heat some olive oil and garlic on the skillet and toss the noodles around until soft. 

Add to your favorite pasta sauce and enjoy!!

To your health!
