It has now been about 2 months of me making Zucchini noodles with my zoodle maker. The kids and I can't get enough of them! Funny enough, but the two times I've made them for the family, Jeff had a late night at the office and hasn't yet tasted this tasty concoction. I would've given him a plate when he walked through the door, but the three of us devoured the HUGE amount I made for dinner. I can't really be upset when the kids are eating tons and tons of zucchini. This is some good stuff!
I basically have replaced regular pasta for zucchini. The kids even know what I am doing and doesn't mind. They are getting a kick out of it too. I take about 5 big sized zucchini's and shred them into spaghetti looking pieces. I saute it in a pan with very little olive oil. I add in some fresh, chopped onion and a can of Oregano, Basil, & Garlic Diced Tomatoes. I finish it with some extra spaghetti sauce to add a bit more sauce coverage. The ingredients are all natural and doesn't have any added sugar. When I make this for dinner and see my kids absolutely love eating it, I pinch myself to make sure I am not dreaming. I feel like I got it right; being a mom, finding healthy dishes to feed to my kids. It clicks on nights like this and I my smile is a mile wide. Plus, I have to admit, it's pretty darn tasty.
