Ingredients

  • For Noodles:
  • 4 Medium zucchinis, spiralized with blade b
  • Salt
  • For Sauce:
  • 1/2 Cup + 2 Tbsp 2% Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1/4 Cup Canned roasted red peppers, drained, sliced and tightly packed
  • 1 Tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp Garlic, minced (or to taste)
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • 1/2 Cup Feta cheese
  • Fresh basil, sliced

Instructions

  • Toss the zucchini noodles with a pinch of salt and let them sit in a strainer over a bowl for 20-30 minutes. Stir them around a few times while they strain. This will bring a lot of the water out.
  • While the noodles strain you can make the sauce!
  • Throw all the other ingredients, up to the feta in a small food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. Let stand for 10 minutes to thicken up.
  • When the noodles are strained, toss them in a pan set on high heat until they are lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Then, throw in the sauce and and cook until the sauce has warmed through.
  • Garnish with fresh basil and feta cheese and DEVOUR!
