Zucchini noodles or zoodles and they seem to be known all
over the interwebs are all the rage right now. I have always loved zucchini so
this latest fad isn’t a stretch for my taste buds.
This combo of zucchini and tomatoes has always been a
favourite. I used to just sautéed them up together, but I just sliced the
zucchini, I didn’t get all fancy making them noodles. I don’t have a spiralizer
so I just used my vegetable peeler to make thin ribbons for noodles, it worked
great!
This dish takes like less than 10 minutes to make and I
loved it!
What you need,
1 medium zucchini, sliced lengthwise with a vegetable peeler
½ tbsp. butter
½ tbsp. olive oil
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
1 small garlic clove, minced
4 basil leaves, chiffonade
2 tbsp. shaved Parmesan cheese
Add the butter and olive oil to a medium skillet over medium
heat.
Add the zucchini ribbons and tomatoes to the skillet and
toss gently for a minute or two. Add the garlic and cook another 2 or 3 minutes
until the tomatoes begin to soften and everything is hot. Season the dish with salt and pepper. Add the
basil and toss gently.
Top with the shaved Parmesan cheese and stuff in your face!
This is just way to simple and way too delicious. I just ate
it all for dinner but it would be a great side dish with fish or chicken.
Even if you think you don’t like zucchini, make this it will
change your mind! I promise!
Enjoy!
