The Asian zoodle love affair continues. I’m not ashamed. I’ll proudly shout my love of zoodles from the rooftops. If you haven’t jumped on the zoodle bandwagon, I don’t know what you are waiting for. An invitation, maybe? Okay, cool.
I cordially invite you to stop eating regular, boring, gluten filled noodles and replace them with these ridiculously awesome, healthy zucchini noodles.
There. Now you don’t have an excuse. You have to try zoodles. They are so good and so good for you. Seriously, your jeans will thank you for replacing some of your carb heavy meals with this better for you alternative. In case you have missed them, I have made several delicious recipes featuring this versatile veggie including this Honey Sriracha Chicken Zoodle Bowl recipe and these super simple One Skillet Garlic Parmesan Zoodles. Either one of these recipes will have you singing the praises of the zoodle too.
I’m happily adding this Thai Peanut Chicken Zoodle Bowl to my best of the zoodle list. It is a contender for best zoodle recipe of the year. For real.
So now that you have your official invite let’s get this party started and make some kick ass zucchini noodles.
