How To Make Zucchini Pasta Salad

This zucchini pasta salad is easy to assemble and will be ready in about 5 minutes. The zucchini ‘noodles’ can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for a couple days, making for a quick grab-n-go meal idea any time you need.

Simply julinne or spiralize your zucchini.
Place the zucchini in a bowl, along with halved cherry tomatoes, a few sprouts, avocado, chiffonaded basil, and sprinkle of salt and pepper.
Add a big squeeze of lemon overtop. If you like, a little olive oil is great too.

And don’t forget your almond parmesan, it’s a great staple to have in the pantry or fridge for meals like this, topping it off nicely while adding more nutrition and flavor!

Recommened Equipment: Zucchini noodles can be made using a julienne tool or sprializer. For the zucchini pasta you see here I used a julienne tool, creating straight noodles. This tool is small and easily fits in the utensils drawer. On the hand, a spiralizer is a bit bulkier, and creates long curly noodles, like these spriralized zucchini noodles. Both tools are great to have on hand, creating different style noodles. (This paragraph contains affiliate links.)
