PALEO PASTA

pasta...its so good, but can get unhealthy quick. here, i show you the healthier version of pasta using vegetables! i heard a quote on MasterChef Junior that went something like, "what grows together, goes together." how clever! zucchini's are a great alternative for making pasta and since they dont have much taste, you can really go wild with spices.

go get yourself a spiralizer at target or your favorite kitchen store and test this recipe out. i promise you, you won't be going back to starch pasta after indulging in 3 servings of this dish. you can make this dish paleo, vegan and vegetarian as well (just omit the cheese and preferred meat).
