Receta Clean Eating Shrimp Zoodles
This recipe is very similar to shrimp scampi, but better!
I love Zoodles! They add so much more flavor to a dish than regular pasta. In fact, I’ve kinda gone on a zoodle kick lately. My kid may actually turn into a zucchini here shortly.
The truth is, I miss pasta for dinner. And these “noodles” are the only substitute that do the trick! About the only thing I don’t like about zoodles is the chunk of zucchini that gets left behind in the spiralizer. But I’ve solved that little dilemma by simply chopping them up and adding them to my morning eggs. Delish, and nothing goes to waste!
