Ingredients
8 medium zucchini, spiralized*
Ingredients:
1 cup (4 ounces) halved cherry tomatoes or baby cherry tomatoes
1 cup of bocconcini, cut in half
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
Dressing:
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar or red wine vinegar
1/4 cup Parmigiano -Reggiano
1 tablespoon Keto mayonnaise
1 teaspoon stevia
1 garlic clove, freshly grated
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
*One zucchini makes about 1 cup zoodles or 1/2 cup of cooked zoodles
Instructions
- To make zoodles more like pasta (pretend I didn’t say that), preheat the 350F. After making the zoodles, place them in a colander with some salt over the sink. The salt will draw out the excess moisture in the noodles that would otherwise make them taste soggy. Let them sit in the colander for a half-hour, and then gently squeeze the moisture from them.
- Rinse and dry very well with a paper towel.
- Arrange the zoodles on 2 large baking sheets covered in parchment so you can separate them.
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and bake for about 15 minutes. Be sure to toss around the zoodles so that more of the moisture comes out. Remove from oven. Let cool. Drain on a paper towel. Set the zoodles in a serving bowl and put them in the refrigerator to cool.
- Place tomatoes and cheese in a small bowl. Refrigerate until needed.
- To make the dressing, add all ingredients to a sterilized mason jar. Cover and shake well. Let sit until ready to use. Use as desired. Store remaining dressing for another use. It’s delicious!
