sChickpeas, sun dried tomatoes & zucchini noodles are tossed with a balsamic vinegar dressing in this vegetarian & gluten free Greek Zucchini Noodles Recipe!
Happy Meatless Monday everyone! I have a super quick and easy new vegetarian recipe to share with you today!
With the first day of spring less than a week away, I’m tossing some healthy new dishes into my weekly menu.
While I love pasta, every once in a while, I’m down to ditch traditional wheat noodles for zucchini noodles. It packs more veggies into the dish, while also keeping it gluten free!
For this zucchini noodles recipe I went “greek style” and tossed in garbanzo beans for protein. I topped the dish with sun dried tomatoes and feta cheese for a burst of flavor and a touch of creaminess.
This dish turned out so delicious and it was super easy to make! If you’ve got 15 minutes, you’ve got time to make this recipe for dinner tonight!
