Healthy carrot / zucchini pasta
- 4 carrots (or zucchinis or half of each)
- 2/3 cup (or more) of any pasta sauce you prefer (i.e. marinara sauce, mince meat, peanut sauce, carbonara sauce etc)
- 6 tbsp grated cheese
- This is the most "difficult" and boring part of the preparation.
- You'll need a potato peeler and you have to peel each carrot (and/or zucchini) until it's so thin that you can't possibly peel it anymore.
- The time this takes depends on the size of the carrots but it's generally ~6 mins per carrot.
- Once you're done with step one you'll have carrot (and/or zucchini) noodles!
- They may seem like a lot but they'll shrink in size later on.
- Throw all of the "noodles" into a frying pan and cook for ~3-5 mins, until they're as soft as you like your pasta to be.
- You don't need to add any oil but you gotta stir and move them around a lot.
- Turn off the heat and add your favorite sauce (that you've already prepared before starting with this recipe).
- Transfer to bowls.
- Top with a generous amount of grated cheese (I find that the taste of the carrots is too strong without cheese) and enjoy!
