My review
Zucchini Spaghetti
Sarah
"Fooled my husband into eating his vegetables. When fully cooked, the texture is like an al dente pasta. You can turn this vegetarian by omitting the ground beef."

Ready In
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef and black pepper in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease.
- Mix tomato sauce, tomatoes, salt, basil, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and red pepper flakes into ground beef; cook and stir until sauce is warmed through, about 2 minutes. Stir tomato paste into sauce.
- Mix zucchini "noodles" into sauce, pressing down to fully submerge them; simmer over medium-low heat until zucchini is tender, about 10 minutes.
Footnotes
- Cook's Note:
- For best results of noodle shapes, run the zucchini through a spiralizing tool.

Very delicious! The only thing I changed was I used sausage instead if ground beef. I keep everything else the same. Definitely will make it again.

The taste was 5 stars, but the ratio of sauce to noodles was way off--I could have cooked six zucchini! Thus it only gets 4 stars. But I will make it again, and again, and again. Yummy!

I tweaked the recipe and added a can of coconut milk and it tastes better than the vodka pasta sauce at the store. The coconut milk is key! It gives a rich creamy flavor.
