How to Make Zucchini Spaghetti
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or roasting pan over medium heat.
- Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and cook until light golden, about 5 minutes.
- Using a vegetable peeler or mandoline, create zucchini noodles (spaghetti or fettuccine style) from 2 medium zucchini (about 2 cups).
- Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet and cook for a few minutes without turning, until slightly softened.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and cook another 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until barely tender but still slightly firm. Do not overcook.
- For a fresh tomato basil sauce, toss with 1 cup of your favorite marinara sauce and 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil.
- For a creamy primavera, toss with 1/2 cup of your favorite creamy sauce (alfredo, pesto etc.) and 1/2 cup of mixed sauteed vegetables (such as bell peppers, mushrooms, and onions).
