Looking for an easy, low-carb, super satisfying dinner for a rainy night? This recipe has been a go-to when I'm craving pasta, but also trying to get my veggies in. The best of both worlds! Check it out...
Ingredients:
(Serves 3-4)
- 3-4 large zucchini
- 2 Tbs olive oil
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 16 oz marinara sauce of choice (My favorite is Rao's)
- Garnish: basil, parmesan (or nutritional yeast if dairy-free), red pepper flakes, etc.
Directions:
Using a spiralizer, make your zucchini noodles, and lay them flat on paper towels on the counter. Sprinkle salt over zoodles to help absorb some of the moisture. Set aside.
Heat 1 Tbs olive oil in large sauce pan on medium heat, and cook the ground turkey until it is no longer pink (6-7 minutes), stirring occasionally. Pour marinara sauce over turkey and mix well on low heat. Set aside.
In a separate large pot, add another Tbs of olive oil and cook the zoodles until tender. Drain the excess liquid, and plate your zoodles. Top with marinara sauce, basil, and parmesan.
Bon Apetit!
