Caprese Zoodles!
What are Zoodles? Spiralizing your meal allows you to transform a healthy, low-calorie, low-carb vegetable into a giant bowl of pasta! Top with the right sauce and protein and you’ve got a delicious meal that will taste just like pasta without the guilt! I love shrimp and organic free range chicken topped on my mine!
