Yes, yes, yes, I am a veggie lover! I’ll eat them raw, steamed, baked, and grilled.
I’ll usually go back for seconds when it comes to vegetables.
Sometimes it can get pretty boring eating the same old vegetables the same old way and not trying out anything new.
I’ve been stuck in that rut so often that it’s not even funny. That’s when I try out new veggies or even new recipes.
This time I tried something different all together. A veggie spiral machine!
It does thick and thin cuts and is extremely easy to use, so I decided to give it a whirl.
I made this tasty zucchini pasta with shrimp and it came out tastier than I could ever imagine.
I love pasta and I love veggies, so why not try them together, right? Enjoy!
Ingredients
4 Medium Zucchini (Ends Cut Off, Spiraled)
½ Tsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
½ Tsp. Garlic Powder
½ Tsp. Onion Powder
½ Tsp. Basil
Pinch of Salt
14 Oz. Medium Shrimp (Cleaned, Deveined, Cooked)
1 Tsp. Squeezed Lime Juice
Optional: Shredded Parmesan Cheese
Directions
In a frying pan over medium heat, cook zucchini in olive oil until the noodles have a consistency of spaghetti, but softer than al dente.
Add in garlic powder, onion powder, basil, and salt. Toss noodles.
Remove noodles from heat and set on aside on separate plate.
Place shrimp in the frying pan and cook over medium heat for 1 minute. Add lime juice to pan. Allow to cook for 2 more minutes and then remove from heat. Serve pasta with shrimp. Top with parmesan cheese.
