I love how versatile this low carb, low calorie vegetable can be! Many people have tried to zucchini noodle (“zoodle”) approach which I love. I have a spiralizer as well as a serated peeler to make noodles. Spiralized noodles are shown in this photo of my Fall Inspired Turkey Sausage Tomato Sauce:

And the noodles made with a serrated peeler can be seen in this photo for Lemon Zucchini Pasta with Tomatoes:

I also use zucchini for these Zucchini Parmesan Bites and for these Zucchini Pizza Rolls (members recipe).
