Italian Style Zoodles Recipe with fresh veggies and herbs makes a healthy and satisfying combination. It’s Keto and Paleo friendly, gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan and can be easily made in under 20 minutes! Try it!

Today I’m presenting you with a refreshingly simple and beautiful lunch / dinner recipe. Zucchini noodles or zoodles with sautéed onion, tomato and basil is what I’ve been making a lot lately. This vibrant yet simple meal takes less than 20 minutes to make. Less time making it and more time devouring it !!

Italian Style Zoodles recipe is easy and quick to make and it’s super delicious. Not to mention, it is low carb and very Keto friendly.  Thanks to the summery combination of tomatoes on the vine which tend to be sweeter and more flavorful when in season and fragrant basil. This recipe is inspired by the freshest “farm to table dinner party” I had attended during our trip to Florence last summer.

Our outdoor basil plant is growing like a weed. Happy me ! I love my kitchen herb garden. The different aromas are so pleasing to the senses. I have Lavender, Basil, Chives, Thyme, Rosemary and lots and lots of mint and cilantro. Spending time in my herb garden always transports me back to the best times we had spent in our trip to Italy and Tuscan countryside. It’s so charming and dreamy to cook with freshly picked herbs from the garden. Don’t you agree?
Italian Style Zoodles made with all summery produce is best eaten al fresco. A good conversation on the outdoor patio, few sips of delicious wine and beautiful warm summer breeze will make this meal a picture perfect !! As for dessert, a simple Coconut Chia Pudding with fresh fruit on the top will do the trick. I cannot recommend it enough.

I also love zucchini noodles because they don’t take that long to cook either. Zucchinis are made up of 95% water. So it’s important to try and get out excess water so you don’t have soggy noodles. The easiest way to do this is by putting them in a colander in the sink, sprinkling them with a little salt and letting the water drain out. Then, just pat them dry with a paper towel and they’re crisp and ready to go!
