My new favorite way to enjoy pasta night with the family! I can twirl my zoodles while they slurp their noodles :)

Blue Ribbon Recipe

If you're looking to cut back on pasta, serve zucchini noodles! It's a way to enjoy a lower carb spaghetti night. The noodles have a lovely, slightly crunchy texture. Serve with your favorite pasta sauce, with a little olive oil, or melted butter. Yum!
