Zucchini Spaghetti

Ingredients:
1.) 2 large zucchini's for each person you're serving (it might seem like a lot at first however it will cook down
2.) 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
3.) 1/2 tablespoon of chopped basil
4.) 1 tablespoon of Parsley
5.) 1/2 teaspoon of lemon peel or approximately 8 drops of lemon juice
6.) a few cherry tomatoes if desired

Instructions:
1.) Clean off the zucchini and cut off the ends and then grate
2.) In a skillet add 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and heat on medium-high temperature.
3.) Once heated add your zucchini noodles
4.) After only about 2 minutes your noodles will be cooked and then add your lemon peel/juice, basil, and parsley.
5.) If you chose to make for more than one serving then cook noodles in separate batches to allow them to cook evenly.
6.) Once cooked add any sauce of your choice (I recommend light fat alfredo and only about 2 tablespoons worth)

Nutrients:
Calories: 230 (not including the sauce of your choice)
Sodium: 11 mg

Side Notes: 

I did not include the cherry tomatoes or any type of sauce into the calorie and sodium content. Also these noodles will cook quickly on high, I'm talking like 5 minutes so not only is this meal healthy but its also easy and quick to make.

My Finished Product: (served 4)
