I just got back from Arizona yesterday afternoon and I am having a hard time not thinking that today is Monday. But it's not...thank goodness, it's Tuesday. After a weekend of being out of town, I always need a healthy meal to get me back on track for the week. Lately I've been loving zucchini noodles as a way to get my pasta without the carbs and fewer calories for an easy and quick weeknight meal that is super satisfying. Zucchini noodle "pasta" and pork meatballs will satisfy even the burliest of men (Canean loves it, and he's kinda burly) and will also be kind to the waistline, which I know all of you ladies will appreciate.
If you have never had zucchini noodles, you might be hesitant...as I was being the huge pasta lover that I am. And believe me, I have no intention on giving up my pasta completely, but zucchini noodles allow me to make versions of my pasta dishes more often!
Hello, more pasta? Can that ever be a bad thing? Not by my standards.
The zoodles are coated in a white wine and garlic sauce and the meatballs are tender and full of flavor and just so happen to be one of my favorite comfort foods. Topped with fresh basil to bring it all home, this meal will make your belly very happy and you won't even miss the pasta.
