Do you know 100 grams of zucchini has is just 16 calories with 3.35 grams of carbs? (Source: Fatsecret) . This veggie is loaded with dietary fiber and Vitamin C. If you are on a weight loss regime or want to lower your carb intake, zucchini is a blessing. It is readily available and not that expensive too. In one of the popular recipes using zucchini, you will find Zoodles. Zoodles recipes are all over Pinterest. My kitchen cupboard is already filled with appliances. There is hardly any space left for a new tool. Finally, after a lot of hesitation got this small handy Spiralizer. I am pretty happy with this one. I have been using this quite a lot. My little one loves having cucumber and carrot noodles. A spiralizer is a handy tool in your kitchen. If you are interested in meal preps, this fits the bill perfectly. You can use this to make and store bags of spiralized zucchini, cucumber, carrots, beetroot, cabbage, etc. These are very handy to churn up a quick recipe. You may also look at my other zucchini recipes – Zucchini Banana Bread, Zucchini Stir Fry Zoodles being a low carb meal, you can serve this with any grilled or sauteed meat or veggies: You should salt your zoodles. This helps in draining out the moisture. Salt it and leave it out for some time. Then drain the excess liquid. Cook the mushrooms first. Saute them in olive oil until they get caramelized and appear brown. Add minced garlic and saute them again for a minute until it loses the raw smell of garlic. Time to add the seasoning and chili flakes and mix everything well. You can switch off the flame now while adding the zoodles. Put grated parmesan on top. I would not suggest storing the tossed zucchini with mushrooms, and all as this will turn soggy and would not taste the same later.
