It has the perfect ratio of sweet to saltiness to satisfy anyone’s palette.
Zoodle Alternatives
I first started making this recipe with pasta, and I cannot deny that it was insanely delicious! We were eating it so much that I decided to go with a healthier, less fattening alternative. Hence the zucchini noodles. They’re a great substitute. However, if you prefer other options, you can always consider the following:
- Egg Noodles
- Carrot Noodles
- Linguini
- Rice
