Ingredients

  • 5 medium-large zucchinis washed
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • Optional Meat of choice - I used Organic Chicken Sausage

CREAMY SAUCE

  • 2 large or 3 small avocados, pit removed
  • 2-3 springs fresh basil (about 10 basil leaves)
  • 2-3 springs fresh cilantro about 10 cilantro leaves
  • 2 tsp. sea salt
  • 2 tsp. ground pepper
  • 3 garlic cloves chopped
  • 2 Tbsp. coconut oil
  • 1 small lemon squeezed

Instructions

  • Use the Veggetti to spiralize all your zucchinis into a collander. Add some sea salt to the zucchini and toss to coat. Allow to drain (in plastic bag or sink) for about 20 minutes. This will get rid of some excess water from the zucchini. After, pat down your zucchini with some paper towels to get rid of even more moisture.
  • Put all of the "creamy sauce" ingredients in a food processor and blend until your desired consistency.
  • In a frying pan, add 1 tbsp. coconut oil and melt on medium high heat. Add the zucchini and cook for about 3-5 minutes. Once it is warmed up a little, add the chopped meat of choice and sauce. Toss the ingredients in the frying pan until all the zucchini is coated. Cook for another 3-5 minutes
  • Enjoy immediately!

Notes

For Raw: No need to cook ingredients, just stop at Direction #2.
For Vegetarian/Vegan: Just leave out meat!
