LOWER CARB ZUCCHINI NOODLE SPAGHETTI BAKE

 

 

 

A lower carb pasta dish that’s super comforting and perfect for a quick and easy dinner!

INGREDIENTS

·      2 ounces spaghetti noodles

·      1 teaspoon olive oil

·      1/2 small yellow onion, thinly sliced

·      2 cloves garlic, minced

·      3 large zucchini

·      1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

·      1/4 teaspoon salt

·      1/4 teaspoon black pepper

·      2 cups tomato sauce

·      1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided

·      Basil for garnish, if desired

INSTRUCTIONS

1.  Heat oven to 400 degrees F.  Cook pasta according package directions.  Once done, drain and set aside.

2.  While pasta is cooking, heat a large oven safe pan over medium heat.  Add olive oil and onions and cook for 3-4 minutes.

3.  While onions are cooking, spiralize the zucchini (or cut in thin strips if you don’t have a spiralizer).  Add garlic, zucchini, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning to the pan and cook for about 7 minutes, until zucchini is tender.  There will probably be a fair amount of water that comes out of the zucchini, I like to use a turkey baster, or spoon, to discard as much of the water as I can.
