Spicy Shrimp and Zoodle Pasta Recipe

Written by Published on Updated on October 20, 2022 in Main dishes, Mediterranean cuisine

Zoodles, what a funny name don’t you think so?  This was my second attempt making this Spicy Shimp and Zoodle Pasta Recipe.  The first time the Zucchini flew all over the kitchen.  It’s understandable when you don’t have that special little thingamajig that helps you slice the Zucchini.   So, I thought I would try with a grater.  Oh gosh, that was definitely a mistake, and I don’t plan on doing that again.  I then tried my food processor nope, nope, too short.

I was left with one option and that was to go to the supermarket and buying the ready cut Zoodles.  Yup folks that’s what I did.  I know I know shame on me for buying ready sliced Zucchini, buttttt what was I suppose to do. 🙁  Sometimes, you just gotta do what ya gotta do, right? I have decided on investing in a “Spiralizer” (thingamajig) for this recipe and other similar recipes that I have in mind.  🙂

The Shrimp and Zoodle Pasta were delicious, the combination of dry white wine and a few drops of lemon juice just makes an hugh difference. And anddddd the chili flakes.  This is usually eaten during the summer due to the refreshing taste, well this is what they say but as for me, well I’m different I like eating everything all year round.  I definitely recommend eating it any time of the year, with chili flakes or without. 🙂  This is definitely a great alternative to have if you’re looking to eat a healthier version of Pasta.  But I do know that there are some people who do dread eating pasta, so if you are one of those people try this version out. 🙂

Wishing everyone a wonderful day and safe day!!

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie
