Zucchini Noodles

Zucchini noodles or 'zoodles' are a nutritious base to have for many meal options, and are a low carb, more nourishing alternative to pasta. This recipe is super filling, and a great way to increase your vegetable intake. If you are wanting a non-vegetarian option, add some chicken to the dish. Like many avocado based dishes, I recommend eating this right away if possible, that being said, the leftovers are edible.
