Directions
This Zoodles Alla Puttanesca is a great idea for a warm salad that makes a completely low carb meal dish. It’s a wonderful way to add up on veggies on your day to day routine. My kid really likes the zoodles, anything that looks like pasta works for him.
I call this Zoodles Alla Puttanesca a warm salad because basically, we mix here zucchini, ripe cherry tomatoes, garlic, capers, Kalamata olives, anchovies, and olive oil. I made this as a take off to the classic Meditteranean Italian dish Spaghetti alla puttanesca. If you’re looking for healthy pasta but not necessarily low car, try my gluten-free Puttanesca pasta.
Making this dish couldn’t be easier. I just use a spiraliser to make the spiral shape from the zucchini. I put aside the zucchini and crush garlic cloves, cut a few ripe cherry tomatoes and I’m ready to make the dish. To make the dish I heat olive oil in a large pan and add the garlic and anchovies. I stir until the anchovies completely melt into the oil. Now i add all the remaining olives, capers, cherry tomatoes, chili pepper and let it cook on low heat for about 10 min.
To reduce the acidity i only use a few cherry tomatoes in this dish and not adding tomato paste.
