Zucchini Noodles
Zucchini noodles, commonly called zoodles, are fresh spiralized vegetable strands made from summer squash, serving as a low-carbohydrate alternative to traditional pasta. This gluten-free preparation retains zucchini's high water content and provides dietary fiber while being significantly lower in calories than grain-based noodles. Their mild flavor adapts well to sauces, though they require brief cooking times to maintain a tender-crisp texture that mimics al dente pasta without becoming mushy.
