Zucchini Fettuccine [BF]
Health Highlights
Gorgeously green zucchini makes for pretty white and green zoodles. Add your favourite sauce and voila! Or cook your zoodles and use butter as your sauce.

Ingredients


1 medium Zucchini
1 tbsp Olive Oil, Extra Virgin (or butter)
1 dash Salt and pepper
4 tomato Cherry Tomatoes
2 leaf Basil, fresh (garnish, optional)

Instructions


  1. Plan for roughly one medium-sized zucchini per person.
  2. Split the zucchini in half lengthwise. Scoop the seeds with a spoon and slice the halves very thinly with a potato peeler or use a spiralizer to make zoodles.
  3. Toss the zucchini noodles in a simmering sauce of your choice and serve immediately with cherry tomatoes.
  4. If you aren't serving your zucchini with a sauce, then boil salted water in a large pot and parboil the zucchini slices for a minute. Drain the water and add olive oil or 2 or 3 tablespoons of butter, salt and pepper to taste and stir.

Zucchini may help to improve digestion and is a good source of vitamin C, folate and potassium.
