Ingredients Servings: 4
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- A dash of salt
- 1 Tablespoon almond flour
- 4 large zucchinis, playfully peeled with a veggie peeler
- 2 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (vampires, beware!)
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (or go wild and add more!)
- 1 Tablespoon minced parsley (for that fresh party vibe)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Heat up a large skillet, and let the excitement build for about two minutes. Throw in the coconut oil, and once it’s feeling melty, add the almond flour and a pinch of salt.
- Stir the mix with a wooden spoon until it’s rocking a toasty brown hue – around two minutes of kitchen dance. Scoop out those crumbs and stash them for the grand garnish finale.
- Now, in the same skillet, let those zucchini noodles hit the stage. Sauté them until they’re just tender, about one to two minutes. Lower the heat, and let the veggie show begin.
- In a new pan (because we’re all about multitasking), set the heat to low, throw in olive oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Stir with flair until it’s fragrant – we’re talking a mere 20 seconds of aromatic disco.
- Time to bring the zucchini noodles into the garlic and oil fiesta. Toss and stir until they’re dancing with flavor.
- Kill the heat, and sprinkle in parsley, salt, and black pepper. Top it off with those almond flour crumbs you saved earlier. Cue the confetti – it’s time to savor the party on your plate! Enjoy!
