Recipe Box, Zoodle Primavera
This is a wonderful light spring dish that you can adjust to your own taste preferences
I paired favorite green vegetables
with spiralized zucchini noodles,
roasted Brussels sprouts,
caramelized sweet onions,
and tossed them all together in a skillet
Into a baking dish they go
A little sauce and cheese will add creaminess without a lot of calories, the amounts are up to you
you can control the calories***
I used about 1/4 cup sauce and 1-2 oz Parmesan cheese
This can be refrigerated, covered, before baking, if desired
***Skip the sauce and cheese if desired and simply season vegetables with salt and pepper, toss and serve
Zoodle Primavera

I was very happy with a slice of bacon and a piece of crusty garlic bread 😋
Enjoy!

Zoodles have been on my mind lately too, this sounds really good:@)
Yum – so much healthy green deliciousness!
Looks delish! I am a huge fan of zoodles!! Have a great week, Jenna.
Your photos and descriptions are so good. I think the only way someone could mess up one of your recipes is if they didn’t pay attention to the heat or timer!
Aren’t you sweet, thanks Jeanie! >
Love the combination of veggies for this recipe. Printing this one, I will serve it with a sprinkle of cheese for Jim but plain for me. Great for a summer side with grilled chicken, yum!
yes Emily, it would be perfect with grilled chicken! >
I love the idea of substituting veggies for noodles. I like spaghetti squash, but I really need to try zucchini. The peak months for zucchini are quickly approaching, and we’ll be overrun! I can’t wait to try this!
Looks yummy, Jenna! I have a mini handheld spiralizer and I need to go grab some zucchini soon and try this.
Thanks Kitty, I don’t use mine often enough! >
That is one awesome zoodle recipe Jenna!
