This Zoodle Noodle Spaghetti Dinner Bowl is a fresh and delicious dinner idea that can be on your table in less than 30 minutes!
I love zucchini noodles, or zoodles as people now like to call them. Ever since I got a spiralizer a few years ago, I’ve made zoodles many times for dinner…and I can’t believe I haven’t shared them with you before now! I just think they’re so delicious and a nice alternative to pasta sometimes. I like that they’re light, fresh and pair really well with pasta sauce.
I think what I like most about zoodles is how light I feel after I eat them instead of pasta. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE spaghetti noodles and will never stop eating them, it’s just that sometimes I want something a little lighter for dinner.
Oftentimes I will make both zoodles and regular noodles for dinner so we can have a bit of both…and also truthfully because I don’t have complete zoodle buy-in from the kids yet hahaha! They like zoodles, but have yet to see them as an alternative to pasta. But I love them and could eat them all day errrrrrrday 😉
I also like to serve zoodles and sauce with protein rich cheese like cottage cheese or ricotta cheese, to make a more rounded meal. This is something I’ve always done on spaghetti night ever since my kids were babies…they don’t even know spaghetti doesn’t come without cottage cheese hahaha
Anyway, I hope you try this simple and delicious dinner idea, and enjoy it as much as we do!
