Notes

  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat in a pan with a little olive oil to revive the texture.
  • Freezing: It’s best not to freeze zucchini noodles, as they tend to become soggy upon thawing. Instead, prepare fresh when needed.
  • Pairing: This dish pairs beautifully with grilled chicken, shrimp, or a simple tomato sauce for a delightful meal.
  • Variations: Try adding different veggies like bell peppers or mushrooms for added flavor and texture.
  • Seasoning: Experiment with fresh herbs like basil or oregano to enhance the taste of your dish.
