This recipe is from the Fixate cookbook! (HIGHLY recommend, especially if you are following the 21 Day Fix!)
I am on Day #5 of Master’s Hammer & Chisel, and I was starting to feel really hungry. I don’t know exactly why but this dish was JUST what I needed. I am a HUGE pasta fan, but we all know pasta carries with it a lot of calories. Zucchini Noodles (zoodles) really filled me up and were delicious! I used a very cheap ($10) Vegetti slicer from Amazon.
My husband and I also just started the new Master’s Hammer & Chisel Program, and this meal fits very nicely into the portion control / container plan for that.
Some modifications you can do include serving over whole wheat pasta, or romain lettuce or brown rice.
Makes about 10 servings!
