Zuccini Pasta with Avocado cream sauce!

Recently I decided to invest in a vegetable "spiralizer," this is a fun little tool that can turn any veggie into a stringy noodle like shape. My first experiment with the spiralizer was a zucchini noodle dish that in my opinion looks like fettuccine Alfredo and tastes just as good.

Ingredients:

1. Zuccini
2. Avacado
3. Lime
4. Greek Yogurt
5. Chicken/Turkey Sausage




Directions:

1. Spiral as many Zucchini's you like for this meal I did 3 medium size Zucchinis

2. Saute garlic to taste in olive oil, add zucchini and cook to desired texture, since this is meant to imitate a pasta dish I made my noodles on the well done side.

3. In a food processor ( you can use a blender as well but it is a little bit more work) add 1 to 2 ripe avocados, a cup of Greek Yogurt per each avocado, squeeze lemon and salt and pepper to taste.

4. You can keep this a vegetarian meal or I chose to add in 2 Chicken and Feta sausages from Trader Joes. Since these are pre-cooked I added them at them in once the Zucchini was almost done just to warm them up.

5. Combine all the ingredients and you have a delicious and healthy meal!
