Super skinny, super low carb zucchini noodles recipe! Made in less than 30 minutes! It’s so flavorful, you won’t even miss the pasta here!
Who’s ready for that summer diet?
Yeah, me neither. My wedding diet went out the window months ago so I probably won’t get around to that summer diet either.
But, I can definitely incorporate some zucchini noodles here instead of that carb-loaded pasta without compromising any kind of taste or flavor.
Really.
I mean, hello, it’s low-carb goodness! And we have garlicky, buttery zucchini noodles topped with the most perfect pan-seared lemon garlic shrimp.
So no, we’re not calling this diet food. It’s just super skinny and super buttery and super quick with the shortest ingredient list of all.
