How to make Zucchini Pasta (Zoodles) with Fresh Tomato Sauce

Here's one of my favorite zucchini recipes where I turn the zucchini into zucchini pasta topped with a fresh tomato sauce. This Italian zucchini recipe is so delicious and easy! I would estimate 1 small zucchini per person.
I use a spiralizer to create the zoodles, but you can also use a knife and cut the zucchini into ribbons, or thin strips, but the spiralizer is the quickest way to make it.
This zucchini spaghettiis perfect for those looking to reduce their carbs, go vegetarian or just those who simply want to enjoy a super healthy pasta alternative recipe.
I made this entire recipes in less than 20 minutes. I guide you through the recipe step by step, so grab your ingredients and follow along! You'll learn how I prepare my zoodles, and how I cook them for a quick and easy pasta-free Italian dish!
🟢 INGREDIENTS:
