I’m back!! Sorry I’ve been gone for a while. Life has been so busy lately and it was hard to get in the kitchen!
With the rainy and dreary weather we’ve been having lately, I’ve been craving something light, refreshing to cheer up my mood.
Zoodles with spicy chickpeas and edamame to the rescue.
This is definitely my favorite go to vegetarian dish. Everyone knows me know I love vegetarian food. Although I’m not a vegetarian myself I do enjoy eating light and incorporate more vegetables in my life.
Let me introduce you to your new vegetarian dish pasta and I’m sure you’re going to love it.
Crunchy and spicy chickpea, toss with refreshing zuchini noodles. Then spice things of with your favorite pesto sauce.
I love to add a handful of angel hair pasta to the zoodles and serve it with my favorite Trader Joe’s pesto sauce.
Refreshing, healthy, spicy and delicious for the win.
