I love mixing up other vegetables with my Zoodles.
This versatile recipe is very simple to prepare and so refreshing.
This dish can be served on it’s own, on a bed of lettuce, on top of rice or with grilled chicken as an entree salad. It’s an imaginative way to clean out my fridge at the end of each week and get the most mileage out of my vegetables.
Some GREAT mix-in ideas include:
- Sliced Almonds
- Walnuts
- Pomegranate Seeds
- Feta
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Roasted Corn
- Avocado slices
- chopped Jalapenos
- Sesame Seeds
