Zucchini Pasta

Zucchini Pasta | Recipe Treasure

With the amount of zucchini growing in our garden, we’ve been scrambling to come up with different ways to eat it all! I mean, it’d get pretty boring if you made and ate the same thing over and over again, right?! Well, I don’t know about you but I would! Nothing beats a little variety in life especially when it comes to food. And speaking of variety, what could be a better example than pasta? Pasta comes in all shapes and sizes, and now there’s the new fad of making pasta out of vegetables! I remember the very first time I saw pasta made out of vegetables, I scoffed and said what kind of ‘pasta’ is that? Little did I know that whoever came up the idea was a genius!

My mom made this zucchini pasta the other day and I actually fell in love. I’m usually fair-game to all types of cuisines but this was definitely a game changer! This was undoubtedly the BEST way to enjoy pasta without having the “OMG, I can’t believe that I just ate all those carbs!” and “There’s goes my diet!” reactions follow short after.

For all the mom’s out there that struggle to get some veggies in your kids’ bodies, I think I’ve found a solution for you: a pasta made solely out of vegetables! Now your kids can enjoy the perks of eating ‘pasta’ while you bask in your glory of secretly feeding them vegetables 😉 Bon appétit!
